Bug? It's being played in neither, it's a self contained battery operated analog game.

Did you listen to any of what the guy that was narrating said? Even if you didn't, the date (1976) is everywhere, so you have to know there is no chance this is NES-related! Unless you were joking, which I assumed you weren't because of the lack of a smiley.

How could I have never knows duck hunt was based off something as awsome as that. IF they still produced them I would bet they would sell well.

Damn, It used to be on their history. Seems they wiped the awesome historical slate clean because all they have now is this:
http://www.nintendo.com/corp/history.jsp
They must be ashamed of some event that happened back in 1889.
Maybe they hate the fact they were a hanafuda card manufacturing company.
And Wikipedia doesn't seem to have that duckhunt in the Nintendo entry Either.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo

You know, Nintendo has lost a gripload of my respect.
That Company was my favorite thing beyond understanding, Now they seem like a bunch of money sucking pigs.
I mean I would even save the packaging if I ordered something from 'em.
They Really blew it.
Oh well, who cares. I mod their systems now. In your face N!

If the English-language mass media or English-language scholarly media don't report on a subject, then Wikipedia has no readily available reliable sources on which to base an article on the subject.

I mod my DS too. But if Nintendo starts to push the Wii cat-and-mouse game to the extent that Sony pushed it with the PSP, I might just start promoting a slim PC connected to an HDTV as "the fourth console".

Well, A while ago. 2006 they even had the history of Nintendo on that page. Forgot to point that out. I don't like Wikipedia.

But it was on the direct page.
The home version was that "Toy". Gosh I hate that word.
