Peacekeeper Revolver
This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2015) |
The Peacekeeper Revolver is the light gun released for the Philips CD-i multimedia system.[1] It was released in 1994 and was bundled with Mad Dog McCree, retailing for $60 (USD).[2] The gun required calibration, and it was accomplished via menu options in all the supported games.
The gun needed a sensor positioned next to the TV in order for it to register movement. Beginning in 2011, there was a patent dispute between Philips and Nintendo over the use of the technology (a remote and a sensor bar) for the Wii (and later the Wii U), which was settled out of court in 2014.[3]
