I have two of the official lightguns and a japanese dreamcast, and a few japanese lightgun games. For the life of me, I absolutely cannot get them to shoot accurately. Even after calibration, they shoot a little bit to either side. I've tried with every game to get them to shoot straight, but they don't I have two, and both do the same thing. Anyone else have any issue with these guns?

ever consider that it has nothing to do with the guns? anytime i had issues with light guns it was almost always my tv. though you might have tried a different tv already? for the best results you should use the type of tv that the gun was designed for. this is a old CRT Tv with a rounded tube. the next best would be an old CRT with a flat tube design. try to use the rounded one if you can.

It doesn't work at all with my LCD tv, so far I've tried it on both a flat tube and old rounded CRT. Same issue on both CRTs. Only tried 2 though.

Some guns made in some regions are completely incompatible with tv's made out of those regions.

I have a pair (two) of the SRC wireless bioguns, and a wired biogun (the newer version - there is an earlier release that didn't have a vmu port on the cords plug), for the dreamcast. (these are the white ones that look like Saturn enforcers).

These were made in China and, afaik, sold exclusively in lower parts of Europe (SRC brand was only sold there?).

These guns refuse to work on any CRT tv I've tried - and I've tried many! (in the US).

I think it has something to do with the frequency being displayed on the screen put out by the video games, as some Pal games run at a different frame rate.


I also have a black DC gun, made for Japan. It works perfectly on all of the TV's I tried to use the SCR brand guns on.
