One of Nintendo’s early light gun “games”

This article is over 16 years old and may contain outdated information

In honor of the mediocre release of Wild West Guns on WiiWare let’s look back at a 1976 light gun toy from Nintendo. The Nintendo Kousenju Custom Gunman is amazingly basic, it doesn’t even move. All you do is shoot it with a bundled revolver. The delay is laughable, but for a 1970’s toy it’s actually pretty neat. Watch how this thing winds itself back up so you can shoot it again.
