Gun Fight: Game Guide, Developer and Facts

Gun Fight is a 1975 multidirectional shooter arcade video game released by Midway in North America. It is based on Western Gun, designed by Tomohiro Nishikado and released by Taito in Japan and Europe. Based around two Old West cowboys armed with revolvers and squaring off in a duel, it was the first video game to depict human-to-human combat. The Midway version was also the first video game to use a microprocessor instead of TTL. The game's concept was adapted from Sega's 1969 arcade electro-mechanical game Gun Fight. The game was a global commercial success. In Japan, Western Gun was among the top ten highest-grossing arcade video games of 1976. In the United States, Gun Fight sold 8,600 arcade cabinets and was the third highest-grossing arcade game of 1975, second highest-grossing arcade game of 1976 and fifth highest arcade game of 1977. It was ported to the Bally Astrocade video game console as a built-in game in 1977 and later the Atari 8-bit computers.
