The Wii Zapper, described as "the first offspring of the Wii remote and the nunchuk", can be held and aimed like a gun while the second device is the Wii Wheel, a steering wheel which will launch alongside Mario Kart Wii early 2008.
"The Wii Zapper holds the same potential to change the dynamics for FPS as the Wii remote changed the nature of sports games," Fils-Aime said.
The Nintendo boss explained the Zapper will be compatible with Resident Evil: the Umbrella Chronicles as well as Ghost Squad and the new Medal of Honor.
Nintendo president Satoru Iwata said the Zapper, "erases the kind of complexity that has always created high barriers for even casual players to overcome.
"Now, FPS games don't need to be ruled out any more for the expanded audience. The purpose of the Wii Zapper and the control system of Metroid Prime 3 and the introduction of Wii Ware and the online option - all this makes games feel fresh again, no matter how long you've been playing."
