Zapper
Pressed hard against your CRT TV, making that smarmy dog eat his own snickers, the Zapper was the great equalizer. The incredibly satisfying noise that occurred when fully pulling back the trigger still sends shivers down my spine. This was another attempt by Nintendo to bring the arcade experience into the home. By giving players a light gun, Nintendo sealed the deal and gave their fan base everything they would need to survive a video game apocalypse.
