You might be thinking of the Power Glove, Virtual Boy, most of their recent marketing strategies, Wii U, Shaq Fu, Game Cube, Superman 64, Ninjabread Man, etc. Nintendo has made plenty of mistakes, but Duck Hunt isn't one of them.

If you want a genuinely bad game, there's always Custer's Revenge.


Or Night Trap!


Was that available on a Nintendo system? I remember having it for Sega CD. Image

I've only played Duck Hunt a few times, but I've played Safari Hunt until my Light Phaser wore out.

RIP Bukkabukka; 1986 - 1990, your time with us was short but glorious

I heard that a lot of people hate the Duck Hunt dog and wished they could shoot him instead of the ducks, but I thought it was funny when he laughs at you for letting the ducks escape.

Night Trap was only for the Sega CD. Dana Plato played one of the girls.

I played Safari Hunt as well!

I'm feeling pretty nostalgic for some Safari Hunt right now...

But the joke wouldn't have worked with Night Trap, every failure I picked was either Nintendo's or a third-party that released on Nintendo. whomp-wah
