Classic Game Room HD - NES ZAPPER Nintendo light gun

Classic Game Room HD reviews the Nintendo ZAPPER light gun for the NES video game system. The NES Zapper came with NES systems back in the day and has a copyright on the orange and NES colored unit of 1985. There were numerous NES games that used the light gun such as Operation Wolf, Duck Hunt and Freedom Force. Although light gun video games and shooting games for home consoles is nothing new or revolutionary, this NES Zapper always stands out in a crowd because of its bright colors and unique style. This Nintendo Zapper review featuring footage of the gun from all angles in high definition shows the build quality of this NES accessory and up close style essential to solidifying its lasting reputation as a video game duck slayer. If you like games with firearms (and the Uzi from the Operation Wolf stand up arcade machine) then this NES Zapper is a cool accessory to have in your arsenal of gaming controllers. Classic Game Room is the retro reviewer reviewing NES games, harware and accessories as well as new releases for the Wii, PS3 and Xbox 360. CGR talks about how to modify a light gun with a car battery to have a modified NES Zapper laser cannon! You can even get a scope for this thing.

when i was a kid, i got in trouble for aiming one of these at my babysitter, who thought radiation was going to come out.

I think it would be funny to take off the wire, and pretend to rod a convinience store

HaHa Suckers i still have an old TV and can still use it! :)

No light actually comes out of the zapper. It's really a light sensor, intended to sense the light from your TV screen.

@DoxiMoxi i figgered it out :P the emulator is able to show a frame that the original nes can't seem to do. guess the real nes will never work on it >.< unless maybe one of those strange ebay nintendos (3rd party) were able to fix it? that'd be sweet... i should buy one and let folks know if it works or not.

@izlude2 interesting

@izlude2 edit: i clicked the emulated duck first to get it to show the box then shot at it.

I experimented with the zapper and a DLP.

I used picture in picture for this experiment.

1 side was an emulator while the other was a real NES. The real duckhunt did not display a square around the duck when zapped, but the emulator did.

Using the zapper connected to the real NES, I shot at the emulated duck and it killed the duck flying around on the real NES.

Might this research help anyone? Update the NES display? 3rd party NES capable of this?

that... that would maybe be bad... be fun though!
