with a Sega light gun
A man looking to collect on a debt broke into the house of 60-year-old woman in Brazil's Federal District, holding her hostage for ten hours on the business end of a Sega Light Phaser.
The Light Phaser, the light gun that shipped with the Sega Master System, must be fairly common in Brazil, considering how incredibly popular the 8-bit console was in the country—it was one of Sega's strongest markets.
Fortunately, the man released his hostage, unharmed, after negotiating with police (and brandishing a pair of actual deadly knives). "Unharmed" means we can all laugh about it now! In fact, heroic tipster Gustavo even gave us a free joke: "Of course he would not be able to hurt his victim - we can see that the gun was NOT plugged into the console." ROFL!! |

The Sega Master System's Light Phaser was acually based off the guns used in the anime "Zillion", whereas NES's were original. Maybe the guy was a huge Anime fan?
The gun in "Zillion":

I'm surprised that nobody mentioned the Famicom Light Gun. . .

I fell out of my bed reading that. Then I laughed so hard I woke both my girlfriend and my cat up. Now I'm crying, because I'm forced to sleep naked on the floor and because of my skin complexion, I blend in, rendering me invisible.
Someone please at least send me a blanket and shoot the man responsible for this thread.

 You should totally check out the IRC channel.
While you're at it, go check out my band, Her Majesty's Heroines.

I agree, the Zapper is the ultimate choice for both shooting ducks on your NES, and capturing people at gunpoint.

Hasn't there been cases of retarded cops shooting children who pointed NES zappers at them, or is that an urban myth?

Something similar happened here a while back. A kid with a toy gun was spotted by a police officer, and then arrested for being in possession of a firearm. Said gun was confiscated, though eventually given back to the kid.
The "toy gun" was a PS1 lightgun, if I remember correctly. So yeah, it looked like a gun, except for the fact it was bright red, made of plastic, and had a load of cables coming out the bottom of it.
