Which Platform for Lightgun Games?
<< < (3/5) > >>
shmokes:
I think you should really consider a newer console.  The NES lightgun games just don't hold up to games like House of the Dead and Time Crisis.  It's not just that the graphics are better.  It's that the graphics are SO MUCH better that whole new gameplay concepts are created.  Really....don't put an NES in your system.

I don't have a lightgun, but the NES emulator for Dreamcast supports lightguns (I guess check out "NesterDC+") <- notice the "+".

Same goes for DreamSNES for the Dreamcast.

Heck, now I'm tempted to get a lightgun for the Dreamcast.

For Dreamcast this is not too much of a problem.  After you own the games, you can find an image of them on the net.  You can play burned games w/o a modchip or anything.  So if the disc ever fails, then you can just burn a new one.

Thanks for all the advice. I'm still not sure which way to go...guess I'll have to do some research. Sure wish there was a review site dedicated to lightgun games. Thanks again!
Lilwolf:
btw, the flash on the dreamcast is MUCH better then the one for actlabs.

Actlabs flashes a bright white.  The dreamcast does a light grey.  Much better in my opinion.  

The dreamcast seems to have slightly better accuracy.  Or more of... it doesn't seem to have the 1/10 shot off in left field that actlabs does.

btw, these results where with the SAME VGA monitor.
