Good game but doesn't have that much replay value.

User Rating: 7.5 | Duck Hunt NES
By judog1 | Review Date:
Duck Hunt came out came out for the NES on 1986. It was one of the games that required the zapper to play. At the time it came out I thought it was so amazing that I could just shoot the zapper at the screen and the ducks would fall down.

What did you have to do? This was pretty simple. A brown dog comes out on the screen and jumps into some bushes, ducks come out and your job is shooting them. You have to shoot the ducks in a certain period of time. Like most games the farther you get into it the harder it will get.

I personally think that the replay value isn’t that good. It isn’t like Super Mario Bros. where you can keep playing it for hours and hours. It’s a good game to just pop in once in a while.

The one thing that you will remember about the music is the haunting sound of the dog laughing when you missed a duck. It will make you want to shoot it but then you find out the zapper doesn’t work on the dog.

Since the replay value isn’t that good I’m going to give it a 7.5. I just wish the zapper worked on the dog.

    Duck Hunt is a great game using the Light Gun controller. You aim at the screen with it and pull the trigger to shot the duck! Simple, barely. It seems that where you aim the controller the aim itself will work as if it ... Read Full Review
