Early versions of the peripheral were dark gray, but the color of the sci-fi ray gun-inspired Zapper was changed a few years later when a federal regulation required that toy and imitation firearms be “blaze orange” (color #12199, to be exact) so they wouldn’t be mistaken for the real deal. The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) Zapper then fell into the hands of American kids in October 1985, when it was released in a bundle with the NES, a controller and a few games. Because the included shotgun-style light gun was only usable on a Magnavox television, the game flopped. Light guns hit home video game consoles with Shooting Gallery on the Magnavox Odyssey in 1972. When the beam struck a sensor, the targets – ducks, coincidentally – registered the “hit” and a point was scored. In the first light gun game, Ray-O-Lite (developed in 1936 by Seeburg, a company that made parts and systems for jukeboxes), players shot at small moving targets mounted with light sensors using a gun that emitted a beam of light. The Zapper’s ancestry goes back to the mid 1930s, when the first so-called “light guns” appeared after the development of light-sensing vacuum tubes. How did that thing work? Annie, get your Zapper

The Duck Hunt gun, officially called the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) Zapper, seems downright primitive next to today's systems, but in the late 80s, it filled plenty of young heads with wonder.
