Title: Laser ghost, light gun or positional?
Post by: Beretta on April 27, 2010, 04:24:39 pm

came across a game called laser ghost today.

never seen it before, it looks like a positional gun to me but maw's and mame both claim it's light gun based.

anyone ever played this before? anyone know if it's really light gun based? i'd never seen a 3 player light gun game.. nor a light gun that had been bolted to the cabinet like a positional gun.

Looks to be positional -- the pinout includes spots for Left/Right and Up/Down for each gun.

thanks cheff, must be positional then like i thought.. but curious why mame would have it marked light gun?
rather then analog stick.
