Player 2 in Duck Hunt (NES)

[@Nguyen2-t9p]

after 15 years, now i know that 2nd player can control the duck..!

[@ezioauditoredafirenze5453]

I knew about that when I had my NES with SMB/Duck Hunt cartridge with Zapper box in the 80s. There has been "news" every now and then about this feature. To me it's kinda weird that folks didn't knew about it.

[@julianx2rl]

Do note that a bunch of people played those games in the early 2000s via bootleg consoles. News about these games were sparse during those years.

[@ThePixelPolygon]

You can shoot the dog in VS. Duck Hunt in the arcades (if you manage to get to the bonus game), or just hack a rom.

I feel like I just found a lost piece of my childhood. The last person I expected to see open the door was Phil Bond and I remember watching his videos about Totaka's Song from 11 years ago. I'm amazed!

[@FamicomDojo]

Phil Bond is a recurring special guest. We have an entire playlist for just such an occasion! kzbin.info/aero/PL9Q0B9ucLxwe1z9cT1-xHbrW7GVKMXCi8

@@FamicomDojo Very nice! Will have to check it out. Good to see he's still around.

[@shajamaru1421]

This episode might have the greatest 4th wall joke of all time :D

[@PlatinumTriforce]

There should seriously be a "mystery/horror thriller" parody episode where we find out why so many Seans have shown up. Either that or it could be happening because they just keep putting on Famicom 3-D System glasses and then multiply excessively as a result.

[@FamicomDojo]

We definitely have to do that. It would be epic.

[@CollectingRetro]

I would prank my friends and family members while they played back in the day :) Just hide the controller in your lap and discretely increase the difficulty! So much fun messing with them!

[@Psalm-pr1io]

You can shoot the dog, but you need a repro cart of "VS Duck Hunt".

[@SatoshiMatrix1]

Sean, do either you or Kevin own the Family Gun, the Japanese version of the Zapper? It's revolver shaped (making it almost look like a _real_ gun) and it's trigger is much more satisfying to pull than the trigger of the Zapper. the hammer can even be locked, although it really serves no purpose. I sold mine a while ago, so I can't make any content for it. But if you guys have one, I'd love to see you give it some exposure.

[@SeanOrange]

We have one, just trying to figure out how to safely get it to the U.S. without customs taking it.

[@SatoshiMatrix1]

That's Orange Wrap the cord around the barrel as much as possible, and clearly label the package as "TOY LIGHTGUN FOR VIDEOGAME". Or simply call US customs and explain your concerns and ask what they suggest. I wouldn't go as far as to say "it looks like a real gun so what should I do" but more "I want to import a toy light sensing gun-shaped toy for video games and am concerned it could possibly be mistaken for an actual firearm, which it definitely is not."

[@FamicomDojo]

Update: We have one! In fact, there’s a(nother) video coming out soon featuring it.

[@joeykerr5517]

What the heck? This must be that alternate reality thing people talk about. I forget the word for it... Nice presentation btw 👏

[@TBustah]

I've got a few related questions. I recently picked up an AV Famicom, and after Stone Age Gamer comes out with their improved 72-60 pin converter, I want to start rebuilding my NES collection. Can I use a regular Zapper with it, or will I have to track down a Japanese gun that can be plugged into the extension port? If a Zapper does work with it, will it only work with NES games, or can it be used with Famicom games as well? Can a Famicom gun be used with NES games?

[@SeanOrange]

The Zapper (or any other NES peripheral) will not work on an AV Famicom because they are wired differently. Because the NES was designed with no extension port, its pins were rolled into the P2 port instead. A Famicom Light Gun would work on an NES if you got a converter from the Ext plug to an NES one. Similarly, if you could find an NES to Ext converter you could use a Zapper et al on a Famicom.

[@TBustah]

That's Orange Okay, but regarding the latter, I was talking about when playing NES light gun games on an AV Famicom... will a Famicom light gun work with them, or (since you've said that a Zapper won't work) is there just no way?

[@SeanOrange]

The games should be identical. For a future video we are working on, I tracked down an NES copy of Wild Gunman with a Famciom converter inside.

[@TBustah]

That's Orange I wasn't aware that "Wild Gunman" was one of the games that had those. Cool. Anyway, thanks for the info. I trust you'll throw an obligatory BTTF2 reference into that review? XD

[@SeanOrange]

Dammit, who leaked the script!?!

[@toofani]

I played duck hunt probably hundred of hours between age 5 and 15. This I come to know just Today, I am 35 now and unfortunately I don't have a way to confirm it.

[@FamicomDojo]

It’s hard to do! With the Wii U VC shut down, you also can’t get Duck Hunt on there. It’ll work even if you don’t have a CRT, but then you can’t get really play the game at all… :(

[@JohnnyCrayfish]

I'm surprised you didn't switch to an Orange Zapper.

[@JohnnyCrayfish]

Despite your preference for orange Game Cube controllers!?! 🎮🍊

[@SeanOrange]

+Johnny Crayfish Those were my pre-orange days, and during that time I developed a prejudice against that orange zapper because of the reason it came about. Definitely fodder for a future video!

[@Progearspec]

Two seans !? Uhh ohh you created a time paradox metal gear !???? Funny,how you can't shoot the dog in nes duck hunt but in the arcade version you can.

[@zaneroote5798]

sean. plz teach me your cloning skillz.

[@charlynntab8069]

I’m years late but did your system have a number ? Mines does and was hoping that I can get the number so I can play with my dad

[@FamicomDojo]

What kind of “number” are you referring to?

[@charlynntab8069]

@@FamicomDojo like mines have numbers to play the games. Mines goes from 1 to 602

@@charlynntab8069 It sounds like you got one of those knockoff HDMI boxes that looks like the NES Classic Edition…?
