NES Duck Hunt

[jambog]

Is there anyway to play duck hunt on an NES emu? Is there a pc light gun that is compatible or some way to convert the oringinal NES light gun to USB?

[Double///A\\\Ron]

I'm not sure off hand but wouldn't Nester or Nesticle have mouse emulation of the NES Light Zapper. I know for sure that ZSnes has Super Scope Emu that way. Check under the control settings.

I don't see anything about it under Nesters options. Mouse emulation wouldn't be the same anyway:( . Good suggestion though, thanks.

Try MAME, it supports a light gun and Duck hunt for the NES is emulated in it ;)...

Actually, FCE Ultra, a great Nes emu, supports the lightgun.

Would is support any USB light gun? I found a cheap one on link-sag for under $15, so that would work. Does anyone know if they make a NES to USB converter? I still got the original light gun for NES, and it would be awesome if there was a way to hook it to pc.

Have you actually played this emulator with a light gun? Cause I would hate to spend $15 on a gun and it not work with it.

No. In fact, I never seen a working lightgun on a PC. I just know the theory, but I never tested it. ;)

Light guns do not work on a PC monitor, only on a TV. If U R able to hook up Ur PC to Ur TV then yes, U can use it. Using a NES to USB should do the trick as it's nothing more than a converter changing the NES plug to one that fits into the PC port ;)...

Nevermind what I just said, read this article here :p...

They even show a picture of using that thing on Duck Hunt emulated on the PC. I think I'm going to get me one of those, or two actually ;)...

THAT IS SWEET!:eek: , thanks for the info. I am having a hard time deciding if I want to spend $35 just for duck hunt, so give me some other suggestions for NES or other system games I can play with Light GUns so i can hurry and have an excuse to buy it!

EDIT: I found a list of NES light gun games if any one cares. http://www.pelikonepeijoonit.net/neslight.html

I also tried FCE Ultra and it works great. Jnes also supports the light gun and the curser are little crosshairs:)
I am definitly think about getting the light gun, thanks for the link to it Kameo!

[jambog]

I ordered it. The gun was $35 but the shipping was $29 Oh my:eek:

Damn thing better work.

Also, I noticed on my duck hunt ROM there wasn't the skeet shooting game on it. I remember on the original game there were three options.

A: 1 Duck
B: 2 Ducks
C: Clay Pigeons

Would this skeet shooting game be under a seperate title? I sooo loved that game.

EDIT: Never mind, the version of Duck Hunt I got off coolrom.com has the Caly Pigeons game. The ROM I had must have been different.
