Franchise description
On April 21, 1984, Duck Hunt, a light gun shooter game using the NES Zapper, was released in Japan. The objective of the game is to shoot a certain amount of ducks each stage with only three shots. If the player misses a duck, the player's hunting dog laughs at him or her, but if the player successfully shoots a duck, the dock grabs it with its hand and smiles. If the player does not shoot the required amount of ducks, the player will receive a game over. The game was popularized internationally by being a bundle with Super Mario Bros.. It was later re-released as part of the Nintendo VS. System as a Japan-only game named VS. Duck Hunt, which allowed for two players to play at once.
