![]() Too bad the “wireless” tech didn’t match the quality. Amazingly, the infrared technology in the Super Scope worked well, ensuring much more accurate gameplay then its forefather. I don’t know who was dumber here: Nintendo for the idea or SEGA for copying it.Ģ) Battery Life. ![]() If they did, they might have heard that a 2-foot long bazooka with detachable parts that are easy for children to lose and has to be aimed with a scope, not to mention one that is uncomfortable on the eyes and the shoulder may not be such a good idea … Nah!!!!! This is the SUPER NINTENDO, so it needs a SUPER light-gun. You might think that a company like Nintendo (or SEGA, since they did the same thing with their Menacer) would perhaps do some focus testing with the device. Reasons why this peripheral failed include:ġ) It was uncomfortable to use. As it turns out there IS such a thing as good enough, which could have come in the form of another zapper pistol that uses the updated tech of the Super Scope. The SNES Super Scope only found its way into a little over 1.5 million homes. really?!?), the SNES Super Scope is not for you. It is important to note that as a result of its reliance on the manipulation of CRT televisions that IT WILL NOT FUNCTION ON A MODERN HD DISPLAY OR A PROJECTION TELEVISION!!! If the only TV available to you is an HDTV (and if you are a SNES gamer…. It is very similar to the NES Zapper in function along with the addition of added “improvements” such as it being wireless via use of a sensor that plugs into the second controller port and sits on the top of the TV. This is achieved by sending a beam of infrared to light up a single pixel on the TV, which is where the shot will hit. The SNES Super Scope operates by manipulating the pixels on cathode ray tube television sets. It’s a terrible diagram, but it makes my point without me having to tear apart my Super Scope!
