Released in 1994, Wild Guns is a shooting gallery video game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, developed by Natsume. Its setting is a unique blend of the Wild West, steampunk, and science fiction. The narrative revolves around Annie and Clint, a bounty hunter duo on a quest for vengeance after Annie's family is killed. Players can choose to control either Annie or Clint, navigating through the foreground, avoiding enemy fire, and taking down hostile robots in the background. This gameplay combines elements from third-person shooters and light gun games.

plenty of fun to be had here, thanks to some tight-ass gameplay, great theming (the robot + western aesthetic is fantastic and pretty unique), a good soundtrack and the short but replayable nature of it. wild guns is wild funs.
Absolute garbage
Annie is peak character design.
I initially thought this was some related Sunset Riders kind of game, but I got a really cool nice shooter game. I have the feeling it could work better with a light gun (or Superscope) but considering the control it's still great enough as it is.
Great game, real ones know
Wild Guns is a fun example of how great a simple game can be. First of all, I love westerns, and need more of them in my games. This felt like an arcade game in the best way. The combat is slick and works good for what it is, despite seeming confusing in the beginning. For what my expectations were, this was a fun little game.
I give Wild Guns a 7!
