Duck Hunt for NES Free download

Brothersoft Editor: In Duck Hunt, players utilize the Nintendo Zapper Light Gun that must be plugged into their NES consoles, and attempt to shoot down either ducks or clay pigeons in mid-flight. Duck Hunt was also released as an arcade game in 1984, and is included in the PlayChoice-10 arcade console.

The game has three modes: one and two-duck variations on the above formula, and a third mode called "clay pigeon shooting". The clay pigeons are much smaller sprites than the ducks, and, in later rounds, require FASTER reaction time to shoot down than in comparably numbered duck modes. In Vs. Duck Hunt, Clay Shooting mode appears as the second round with the first round being the two duck variation (the arcade version never had one duck). Also, in Vs. Duck Hunt, the dog appears in the clay shooting round when players miss the clay pigeons. In the NES version, the dog only appears in the duck shooting modes.


Players are allowed three bullets to shoot down a duck.Throughout the game, the player is accompanied by a nameless dog that laughs at the player if no duck is hit, and congratulates the player if a duck is hit. Since then, The Nameless dog has passed into video gaming folklore. According to urban legend, the dog can be shot, but this is not possible in the console version of the game. The feat of shooting the dog is possible in a bonus round of the game's arcade version, Vs. Duck Hunt. The dog can be shot only in the bonus round, and only after the final duck has flown from the screen or been hit. This is quite difficult, as the window of opportunity timewise is quite narrow. However, if the player succeeds, the shot turns the dog's face black with POWDER. The dog's carefree expression then immediately turns to one of Rage. After briefly exiting the screen, the dog returns to the foreground, hobbling on cructches, and chides the player by saying, "Ouch, shoot the ducks, not me!"
