Duck Hunt, but make it realistic.
Whatever happened to gun games on consoles in general? Duck hunt was great when I was a kid, and later we had games like Time Crises. I miss those.
Lightguns don't work on LCD screens, so they were not feasible on most consoles once folks started swapping out their CRTs.
Wii had a handful of light gun like games (that used the sensor bar of course) with the Wii Zapper, but other than that games of this type have needed more niche peripherals (Kinect, PS camera, now VR) that have made them more niche.
Lightguns don't but newer technology does. Guns these days just use cameras and they work fine. There's no technical limitations here.
But I do appreciate your comment because that was an actual thing for a while, so completely relevant.
