The GunCon (also known as G-Con-45) is an official controller released by Namco. It is the first GunCon model, followed by GunCon 2 and GunCon 3. The controller was bundled with the 1997 console port of Time Crisis.

    Can’t remember the names, but there’s a few modern tales on these you can buy, but are quite expensive. Thought about buying one a few years back, but the setup is complex with modern displays, and I was lazy about dealing with it.

    Unfortunately, you need a CRT for these to work. Or I guess fortunately, if you can find a nice CRT for a good price, because CRT gaming is awesome.

    I had this game down to 2 continues as a kid.

    The boss with the wolverine claws and the orange-haired boss would be the places.

    So good! And the GCon was a beast.

    I never owned a G-Con and only had a knock-off.of some kind. Spent a lot of time on Point Blank, Die Hard 2 (trilogy) and Time Crisis.

    Not to hijack this post, but does anyone know or have a definitive list of which titles came bundled with a G-Con45?

    The Ghoul Panic bundle in good condition is my collection’s white whale…
