    The House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return (ザ ハウス オブ ザ デッド 2&3 リターン) is a compilation and re-release of The House of the Dead 2 and The House of the Dead 3 for Wii. It is compatible with the Wii Zapper peripheral, and a version released in Japan, The House of the Dead 2&3 Return Wii Zapper Doukonban (ザ ハウス オブ ザ デッド 2&3 リターン Wiiザッパー同梱版), came with one.

    Gameplay

    The House of the Dead 3 includes a new unlockable 'extreme' game mode, with tougher enemies and a smaller blast radius on the shotgun. In addition, weapons can now be used as a melee attack to block enemy blows. The melee attack requires the player to reload after each use. X-Play stated that the ports are officially taken from the PC versions.
