Hmm...I guess since they all came with guns in the beginning, when my family got a Nintendo, I had no reason to think that not everyone had one.  Afterall, it's not like the people who did have them EVER had them hooked up.  prolly 90% of NES lightguns have spent their entire lives in a cupboard or box with the cord wrapped around the barrel.

I didn't have one until later, but once I did, I was a Duck Hunt maniac.  I love light gun games.  I even liked Gotcha, one of the worst games ever.

Long Live Hogan's Alley.

I have a NIB Zapper on a shelf at home as a tribute.

I also love light gun games.  They were just nearly non-existant for the NES.  And let's not talk about the state of SNES light gun gaming.

Yeah, light gun gaming got really neglected in the 16 bit era.  It sprang to life spectacularly in the 32 bit era.

what ive heard through the lines is that there going to release older controllers and basically emulate the classics on a payment system but i bet there going to charge to much where u could buy the old system and games cheaper

Saturn and Playstation both had good lightgun games, mainly from Sega and Namco.

Saturn had awesome light gun games.  HOTD is incredible, especially for a Saturn game.

I totally missed the Saturn. Looking back on the games it had, I regret it.

Oh, I did not forget... I spent hundreds of hours in college playing VC 1+2 on my 13" TV... I may still be able to beat VC1 on one credit.
