The Switchshot is a one-trick pony. You can swap out the firing mechanism for a Wii-mote so you can use it as a lightgun for the Nerf N-Strike Wii game. This in itself is very cool and as a lightgun, its the best around. But as a Nerf blaster, it falls short. Its small in the hand, compared to other guns which are generously sized. It only fires one shot at a time and has only two spare rounds. The range is weak, but accuracy is good. First choice for 'House of the Dead' or 'Residen Evil' on the Wii. Last choice in a Nerf War.
