Blood Serpent is probably a spambot
Old May 11th, 2005, 06:58 AM        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.

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.

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.
