NESLCDMOD Zapper Updates

I’ve been holding off on an in-depth review of the LCDMOD Zapper patches, but I thought it was time for a quick status update:

  • IPS Patches are now uploaded for Duck Hunt, Wild Gunman, Hogan’s Alley and Freedom Force:  http://neslcdmod.com/roms/
  • I’ve had much better luck with the Tomee gun than either the original Zapper or other 3d party brands.  Link is below.
  • I was able to successfully and accurately use the gun from eight feet away!
  • When I tried a gun that wasn’t working well, it almost didn’t work at all…but a gun that did work always seemed consistent.  That’s great news, as you won’t have to worry about getting halfway through a game and having your gun stop working!
  • There’s supposedly a fix to make all light gun’s compatible.  I haven’t tested it yet myself:  https://youtu.be/Yg3TomAcpX4
  • a VS. Duck Hunt patch has just been uploaded, but I haven’t had time to test it.  In my opinion, this is by far the best way to play Duck Hunt!!!  Please test and Tweet your feedback!

    UPDATE:  Hyperkin is now selling the patch (with permission!) built into a Game Genie-like adapter that allows it to work with original consoles!:  https://amzn.to/3TAeR6s
