Not to be confused with the Wild Gunman arcade game in Back To The Future, Critical Kate explores the history of Wild Gunman (1974), the first ever FMV game, a live-action Western shooter before Mad Dog McCree, only it used 16mm film instead of digitized footage. Wild Gunman was also the first Nintendo game ever released in America, although it was initially distributed to arcades by SEGA. Which is ironic, since Nintendo was originally going to call the arcade game Gun Fight, the name of an electro-mechanical arcade game by SEGA. Nintendo ended up releasing an entire line of these 35mm film games, including Sky Hawk (1976), Battle Shark (1977), and Test Driver (1978), but today these are largely forgotten and among Nintendo's lost media. Here's hoping it might one day come to the Nintendo Switch as an Arcade Archives title. ► Enjoy forgotten gaming history?
