Duck Hunt

Who can forget Duck Hunt? The game that shared an NES cartridge with Super Mario is a piece of video game history.

The player had the choice of playing to shoot (with the NES "zapper") one duck, two ducks, or clay pellets. If the player chose to shoot the ducks, then you would see the cartoon dog, added in for much needed comic effect. The action became faster and faster as the player climbed the levels.

They need to bring back this classic game for Game Cube!

"Duck Hunt" for sure is an NES classic as this game and console came with "Super Mario Brothers" as part of the deal when I received my gaming system in the late 80's. And I must say this game was a fun winner, really an easy play as with the gun zapper you as the player just aimed and fired at flying ducks on the screen. It was nice downing duck and seeing your score go up, however the higher the level the faster the ducks got and the quicker they flew as your reaction time and hand eye speed and trigger pull on the zapper needed to be faster and quicker! Heck even my grandfather played this game some and enjoyed it. Need I say more an early classic video game that helped launch the NES era to a famed start.

One of the best game we played with brothers, cousins, and friends. I just miss those days. I am super sad that some day I am going to die and leave these all memories behind

Player 2 could control the ducks. But the real fun was the clay pigeons, and then the competition. It was a single player game, but it was always the competition that made it fun.

Just trying to beat your dad's score... or uncles, or friends, or siblings, the crown of out shooting someone, with a cord that had to be stretched back as far as it would go to count.

It was a classic.

Seriously. This is probably the most boring NES game I have ever played. It beats out Yoshi's Cookie for one of the worst Nintendo games made. You basically shoot ducks with the gun thing, boring. If I wanted a light gun game type of thing I'd buy House Of The Dead 2 & 3 Return on the Wii or just go to Funtime America and play classic gun games such as CarnEvil and The House Of The Dead. This game is overrated and very very boring. I only recommend this to people wanting to waste their lives away, unless you're just playing for pure nostalgia, which I have none for this game.

1.5/10 or: F+
