Duck Hunt/Trivia

Distributor Meddling: The game exists in part to give the Zapper a reason to exist. The other reason the Zapper exists was to convince US toy chains still smarting from The Great Video Game Crash of 1983 that the NES was something different that they had to have.
Dueling Games: With Sega's Safari Hunt on the Master System.
Urban Legend of Zelda: Shooting the damn dog.
- This is actually possible in the bonus stage of the arcade version, Vs. Duck Hunt, where the dog leaps about as a distraction while flushing out the ducks.
- Naturally, it is also possible in Fan Remakes and parodies, like i-mockery.com's version.
- The dog can also be shot in the game Barker Bill's Trick Shooting, but doing so accrues a penalty. Some would consider the penalty Worth It.
- And if you can't get to any of that stuff, give this song a listen.
