The Super Nintendo (SNES) Super Scope is the first party light gun for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

Just like the Nintendo Zapper, the design of the Super Scope is a pistol-style gun, however, this one is like a bazooka with 2 feet long. The Super Scope has firing buttons: the purple or orange In Japan and Europe models serves as the fire button and the grey serves as the pause button. It also has a shoulder mount, attachable scope with an eyepiece, and a wireless receiver plugged into the SNES controller port.

The games for the SNES are Battle Clash, Bazooka Blitzkrieg, The Hunt for Red October, Lamborghini American Challenge, Metal Combat: Falcon’s REvenge, Operation Thunderbolt, Revolution X, Super Scope 6, T2: the Arcade Game, Tin Star, X-Zone, and Yoshi’s Safari.
