Description

The Zapper is an electronic light gun accessory launched within the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in North America on October 18, 1985. It is a cosmetic redesign by Nintendo of America's head designer Lance Barr, based on Gunpei Yokoi's Video Shooting Series light gun (光線銃シリーズガン, Kōsen jū shirīzugan), which had been released in Japan for the Famicom on February 18, 1984.

The Zapper requires compatible NES games, such as Duck Hunt, Wild Gunman, Gumshoe, and Hogan's Alley. Its internal optical sensor allows the player to aim at a television set and accurately shoot at in-game targets.
