- TRIVIA -
Duck Hunt was a hugely popular Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) video game title. It was a launch title. In Duck Hunt, players had a special gun apparatus, the Nintendo Zapper Gun that they plugged into the NES console, and attempted to shoot down ducks or clay pigeons in mid-flight. Like many early video games, Duck Hunt is endless.
The player is also accompanied by a nameless dog which laughs whenever a duck is missed. The dog has passed into video gaming folklore, alongside 'All your base are belong to us' (from "Zero Wing") and the various vocal messages from "Gauntlet". Additionally, one of the more popular urban legends within the video game community claims that some players have found a way to shoot the dog. This is actually impossible for several game-play reasons and limitations, although it is possible to shoot the dog in the bonus round of the arcade version of the game, "Vs. Duck Hunt" (possibly the origin of the urban legend).
- TIPS AND TRICKS -
* Freeze targets : Press Start to pause game play, then resume. The targets will remain paused for a brief amount of time, allowing an easy shot.
* Duck control : Use a standard controller in port one to control the ducks. Note: This may be done when one or two ducks appear on screen.
* Hint, Always hit the duck : Place a magnifying glass between the light gun and your television screen. Hold the Zapper gun approximately two feet back from the television and fire whenever a duck appears. Aiming directly through the center of the magnifying glass and towards the center of the television works the best. Several attempts may be needed to get the gun and magnifying glass positioned correctly.
Note : A fairly powerful magnifying glass was used to discover this trick.
