Hang on! This isn't some modern Wii version of the NES classic, Duck Hunt. You see, this is Ultimate Duck Hunt-ing, which despite featuring ducks in the process of being hunted, is not to be confused with Nintendo's own and entirely dissimilar Duck Hunt. Right, so Ultimate Duck Hunting is a game in which the player presumably hunts ducks, possibly in the presence of an adorable dog that every so often gets in the way of your deadly Pro-G reports that Ultimate Duck Hunting will be the first foray into gaming for new publisher Detn8 (oh, as in detonate!). It's not entirely certain what has prompted the release of the game -- it's either based on a dubious attempt to cash in on a similar, popular brand (is it really?), or the misguided belief that there's an untapped desire among gamers to hunt ducks on their consoles. We'll find out which one it is when the game releases in the US this June and in Europe towards the end of the year.

I clicked on the comments section to type in exactly what you did. Well played. Seriously, could that article have been written any more dorkishly.
Pretty shameless cashing in on a Nintendo franchise, I must say. Wasn't Nintendo already working on a Duckhunt game? I thought they showed a shotgun periphreal and everything.

In other news, my new company, Xplode Fun Games is releasing Trooper Capers: Barrio on April 7th. In this edition, our lovable Troopers are going on Capers in the Barrio, and they switch between 2-D and 3-D environments.

"possibly in the presence of an adorable dog that every so often gets in the way of your deadly rifle."
Duck is hunted with Shotguns, not Rifles.
And since when were hunting dogs defined as, "cute?"

...I never did understand why people would want to play a game about duck vagina, but this makes a lot more sense.
Also, why is that picture from Alex Ross's website?

In other news, Ford's Model T comes out next year, complete with hand crank and solid rubber tires! If you can't beat em, go back to a place in time when you were on top and pretend that the market is moving ahead without you.
Happy Thursday, fanboys, this troll's for you.

This means they won't be inside to play it. At least with fishing games, I can stay inside when it's lightning out.

I would LOVE to see a New Ice Climber hit the Wii, something different from the original game, more like a co-op adventure or something...
