This is a list of light-gun games, video games that use a non-fixed gun controller, organized by the arcade, video game console or home computer system that they were made available for. Ports of light-gun games which do not support a light gun (e.g. the Sega Saturn version of Corpse Killer) are not included in this list. Arcade games are organized alphabetically, while home video games are organized alphabetically by the system's company and then subdivided by the respective company's systems in a chronological fashion.
The Wii is unique in that its standard controller can be used as a gun controller. Though a number of Wii games do not support these capabilities, those which do form an exhaustively long list of games, many of which have no resemblance to traditional light-gun games. Thus, this section will only include games that either explicitly support the Wii Zapper or are rail shooters in nature. Virtual Console ports, such as Operation Wolf,[18] did not include any amount of light gun support.
Metroid Prime: Trilogy (requires the Cobalt Flux Dark Ops Wii gun shell peripheral for easy access of buttons and movement on the Wii's motion controls. Incompatible with the Wii Zapper due to required buttons and movement being inaccessible to the player's hands.)
Chaos Control[50] (European version. Known as Chaos Control Remix in Japanese. Not to be confused with the first Japanese release named Chaos Control which had no lightgun control)[51]
Demolition Racer: No Exit (Unlockable in the mini game 'Big Car Hunter', one of the only 2 American released games which worked with the official Sega light gun, released only in Asia and Europe)
The following games worked with the Magnum Light Phaser, but were brought out by third parties. Some were remakes of the Cheetah Defender light-gun games by Code Masters Ltd.
Billy the Kid (remake) – Virgin Mastertronic Ltd (UK)
Bronx Street Cop (remake) – Virgin Mastertronic Ltd (UK)
The PlayStation has two major light guns: the GunCon/G-Con by Namco and the Konami Justifier (known as the Hyperblaster in Japan and Europe). Other licensed and non-licensed light guns are compatible with either Justifier games, GunCon games, or both.
Extreme Ghostbusters: Ultimate Invasion (GunCon. Justifier/Hyperblaster is also compatible but not specified in the manual or on the packaging, however more than one Hyperblaster at once is unreliable, mixed guns can be used)
Ghoul Panic (Released as "Oh! Bakyuuun" in Japanese, uses GunCon)[55]
Dino Stalker (North America/Europe) aka Gun Survivor 3: Dino Crisis (Japan)[63] (differs from conventional light-gun games in that the player has freedom of movement)
The PlayStation 3 has two dedicated gun peripherals: the GunCon 3 by Namco and the Top Shot Elite by RedOctane. The PlayStation Move can also function as a gun controller. To qualify, games using the Move have to either support the "Move Sharp Shooter" peripheral or be rail shooter in nature.
