2 Guncon 3 Guns Possible With One Pair of Sensors?

Unread post by eewoke »

Hi,

Is it possible to use 2 Guncon 3 guns on Mister? When possible, do you need 2 pair of Guncon 3 sensors, or only one?

Thanks!

I can't see why not; my understanding is that the "sensors" are not anything of the sort. They are IR LEDs that the IR cameras in the Guncons use to triangulate their position relative to the screen (like how Wiimotes functions).

So yes, one pair of "sensors" should suffice.

Thanks! I then can buy a second gun without sensors. Much cheaper ;-)
