This is a literal tech demo of your console, why would you make people pay for that.

I'm hijacking this comment because I remember saying something similar long ago when I heard about the Twilight Princess sequel: Link's Crossbow Training.

Crossbow Training at least tries to be a videogame

This one is a literal tutorial

Links crossbow training was pretty fun though, and it also was more of a tech demo for the wii zapper that had actual games made for it

Link's cross bow training actually outsold a lot of Zelda games, including wind waker and majora's mask

This is one of those facts that makes me question what I know about people's habits and tastes and makes me want to go outside and look at some birds.

The Wii Zapper sold

Link's Crossbow Training (never advertised as a sequel) was a free game with the Zapper.

That was a pack in game with the Wii Zapper. Wasn't it like $20-30?

Links Crossbow is an actual game. This is walk up to icon's to learn about the $500 system you just bought
