Duck Hunt
Also know as: Vs. Duck Hunt
Vs. Duck Hunt is a 1985 arcade light gun video game developed by Nintendo R&D1 (co-developed by Intelligent Systems) and released by Nintendo of America in the USA on March 1, 1985. Gameplay consists of alternating rounds of Games B and C, with 12 ducks/targets per round instead of 10 and sometimes requires the player to shoot three ducks/targets at a time instead of two. In addition, the player is given a limited number of lives; every duck/target that is not hit costs one life. When all lives are gone, the game ends. After every second round, a bonus stage is played in which ducks can be shot for points as they fly out of the grass. However, the hunting dog occasionally jumps out, putting himself in the line of fire and creating a distraction. If the player shoots the dog, the bonus stage immediately ends.
