ataridave Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 This looks awesome: I looked this unit on Ebay, but there was only one listing, and it was for about $2000.00! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamecat80 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Wow......I guess we now know the inspiration for the 1984 NES video game Duck Hunt. Very cool! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPA5 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 The engineering behind this game is absolutely fascinating, and clever. I love the intricacy and ingenuity that goes into games and toys like this.

simbalion Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Wow......I guess we now know the inspiration for the 1984 NES video game Duck Hunt. Very cool! This is neat, but you have to actually look a couple years earlier for the inspiration for Duck Hunt. Atari's QWAK! arcade game. Now, if only there was a video of one of those in action! All I ever see is pictures of the unit turned off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wickeycolumbus Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Never knew about that. Very cool how the ducks are animated! I had a similar toy that was made much much latter, and it's not nearly as advanced as the Nintendo version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I take it that they're not rare enough to justify someone selling one for $2000.00? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
