Dreamcast lightgun

Due for release alongside (well, actually bundled with) House of the Dead II on March 25, Sega's previously-announced light gun peripheral is a good deal more innovative than we could have hoped for. In addition to the requisite trigger (duh!) appears a Dreamcast controller-style D-pad (on the rear of its pistol grip), two additional fire buttons, and a slot at its rear which can accommodate either a VMS or Puru-Puru (feedback) module.

We can only imagine the possibilities that the D-pad can open up (can you say first-person shooter with light gun support?), and the inclusion of a means for built-in feedback is even better. We'll have our first impressions of this extremely promising peripheral when it arrives in Japan next month. - dreamcast.ign.com

"Dreamcast's first light gun is easily the most impressive we've yet seen."
