Ever thought the Nintendo Zapper for the original NES couldn't get any better? Jumping out of the augmented reality of shooting on-screen foes, North Street Labs have turned the classic Duck Hunt controller into a real laser gun, capable of setting things on fire.

Using a 445nm diode, extra wiring, batteries and some knowhow, the team at North Street have put together our idea of a dream come true.  It comes complete with a physical safety lock and custom aim-assisting heat sink to help harness the 2W+ power of the laser.  This is both amazing and terrifying.
