Why are there no lightgun games on the N64 or Gamecube.
 

As far back as I can remember, the NES had a Zapper and the SNES had a Super Scope 6. Now how come Nintendo`s later systems didn`t have light guns on them?

i'm gonna guess it has something to do with Nintendo making less than anticipated profits of the light gun games and accessories.

Because light guns kind of suck?

Because lightgun games are for dollar arcades. >:

They were developing a light gun for the 64, but since there were so few FPS games at the time that could've actually used it they canned it.

And I wonder why Duck Hunt and Hogan's Alley were so damn popular.

They only ever made about 4 light gun games for the NES and 9 for the SNES.

Duck Hunt and Hogan's Alley were fun enough, but there was nowhere to go from there, really.

There had to more more than 4 for the NES, I'm pretty sure of it. And I doubt there were that many Super Scope games.

Oh man, only half of those are actually liscensed games. :(

Well, 8. Still a pretty steady number.

good point :(

I think they should have Nintendo Light Guns. The PS2, Xbox, and I believe the Dreamcast had lightguns, and they worked just fine for them.

I have House Of The Dead 2 on my DC and I love it. This is a very interesting topic.

i want typing of the dead for the dc...
