Lol, can’t say I have. But I did eventually learn that the sensor bars are just dumb IR lights that the remotes track rather than something more complex, so I can see how it would work.
This reminds me of Duck Hunt. Basically you’re not shooting anything from the “gun”. Instead, for a brief moment, the screen turns black and the ducks turn into white blocks. The gun will then register if you’re pointing it at a white block or not and register it as a hit. This was specifically attuned to the refresh rates of CRTs, and consequently will not work with newer LED/LCD TVs.
Ever use candles for the sensor bar? That’s a fun trick.

That’s correct.
Also, if you just put the light gun right against the TV screen, it’ll register a hit no matter where you’re pointing 😅
Where were you 36 years ago when I got my Nintendo?
Prob at home cheating at Duck Hunt.
