‘Duck Hunt’ iPhone game pulled at Nintendo's request




Lawl Mart’s Duck Hunt, an iPhone and iPod touch game that has been available at the App Store, can’t be found any more. The developer says that the game came down at the request of Nintendo, which alleges copyright infringement.

That SUCKS!

Released in January, Duck Hunt made it through Apple’s App Store vetting process and was available for purchase for 99 cents. The game mirrors a title that Nintendo originally released for the original Nintendo Entertainment System, its 1980s-era video game console, and one of the first to support Nintendo’s Zapper, a light gun peripheral.
