test a light gun without a game?

Post by xraydash »

I have a blue SNES Konami Justifier that I found at a garage sale for next to nothing a couple of months ago. Is there any way to test if it works without having a light gun game? I plugged it in with a regular game to see if the start button would at least do something. It didn't. Does that mean it's broken? Or would it only do something with a compatible game? Lethal Enforcers would only set me back about $5 but it'd be kind of pointless purchase just to find out the gun doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Also, does anyone know if that gun works with any other SNES games? Thanks!

Well, I finally broke down and bought Lethal Enforcers. Only cost $4.24 w/shipping on half.com. Cart only and in excellent shape. But the best part? My light gun works!

It's a pretty fun game, similar to Virtua Cop 2. (Probably similar to the first Virtua Cop too, but I haven't played that one. :wink:) Anyone else ever play it? Looks like there are versions for the Genesis, Sega CD, and Playstation.
