Encapsulated and graded 9.6 with a “First-Party H-Seam” seal rating of A+ by WATA Games. Offered here is a sealed and graded copy of "Duck Hunt" developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Entertainment System. "Duck Hunt" was one of the original 17 black box titles released for the system on October 18, 1985, in North America. The shooter game utilized the NES Zapper light gun on CRT television screens to shoot several ducks or clay pigeons depending on the game mode selected, with the player only having three shots to take down the waterfowl. The game is known for its challenging gameplay, utilization of the NES Zapper light gun, and the dog, who taunted the player with laughs every time a target was missed. Sealed copies of "Duck Hunt" are extremely rare; after 1986, the game was typically bundled with "Super Mario Bros." and included as a pack-in game as part of the "Action Series," with both games appearing on the same cartridge. These factors make a sealed copy of "Duck Hunt" all the more desirable and rarer.

This presented copy of "Duck Hunt" features a "REV-A" label, a round Nintendo "Seal of Quality," a "Staggered UPC" label, a "Small Warranty" label, and a "5-Digit Zip USA Code" label on the black box, indicating that this copy was produced between January 1988 and March 1989. According to WATA's census report, of all the copies with "REV-A, Round SOQ" labels, this copy is the sole copy with a grade of 9.6 and is the highest-graded copy in its tier. Population report information is accurate up to the time in which a lot is posted for auction and is subject to change.
