7800 light gun?

Postby ajsmart1 » June 3rd, 2009, 8:51 pm

There were about a half dozen light games released for the 7800.  Did Atari ever sell a light gun separately?  I certainly would have been interested if I had ever seen one.  I certainly wasn't about to put up the cash for an XE system just to get the bundled light gun. Why have roughly 10% of your games use a controller that you couldn't really get? Part of that winning strategy I guess.


E3 seems to turn these boards ugly.... so maybe I'll hang out in the antique section until the dust settles

Hmmm....I don't know. But I just searched for atari lightgun on ebay, and found this.

Geez, $35 for that thing...
