    Doing a house clearout and came across this gun.

    I've no idea what it came from.

    Its a Namco brand, and has a usb connection.

    Anybody know what it is?

    Correct. Only work with CRT TV's. Now we've gone all fancy with our flat screens, these no longer work. Although this reminds me of an old post I saw in a forum years ago.

    Someone asked:
    Do light guns work on plasma TV'S?

    To which someone replied:
    No, but real ones do.

    Thanks folks. Somehow whatever I was typing into Google didn't bring back any results :o

    I'm guessing it's fit for the bin really as I don't have ps/games anymore.

    It's be a waste to just bin it, even offer it for free in the marketplace subforum here :)
