Apple iPhone Hunts Nintendo's Ducks

By Jorge Ba-oh 18.01.2009 23

Apple iPhone Hunts Nintendo

The iconic NES shooter Duck Hunt has been shot down by a clone available to download for iPhone/iPod Touch.

The fan made app can be downloaded for a mere 99 cents and although doesn't have the complete functionality of the original, is a clear rip of the beloved NES classic.

Thanks to GoNintendo.

Lol, all Nintendo can really do is get apple to remove the fan game from the service.

Looks fairly 'meh' anyway, moving the crosshair like that. I'm still devastated that the original won't work on my 42" plasma. Smilie

Doesn't Apple review apps before they're put on the store?

Seems a bit messed up if crap like this gets on.

Sue the crap out of them indeed.

I hate people that do this stuff.

It would take, like 0.1% more effort to make it an original game. Theres nothing Nintendo-specific about a shotting gallery game.
But no, instead they are using Nintendos classic imagary to get a few more sales.
(rather then, you know, make a frelling original game!)

You mean another think coming. Smilie

If anything it just shows that the iphone isn't really a competitor of the DS like the PSP is, but we all knew that anyway.

They don't allow Opera to release their (probably better) browser on the iPhone yet have no qualms with letting people rip off other peoples IP?

Nintendo should sue the pants off Apple. How could they have done this? It wouldn\'t have been so bad if they were going to use the origonal.
