Nintendo’s lawyers have finally done what countless children of the ’80s only dreamed of: silenced the maniacal, mocking laughter of the Duck Hunt dog. … Or at least they’ve quieted the canine on iPhones, having a clone of the classic removed from the App Store after only a month of availability.
Let this serve as a reminder to all who might try a similar stunt … there’s only room for one company in this industry to coast on the past successes of Nintendo.

Three games that were assumed to be headed for the Virtual Console have disappeared from the
ESRB's ratings list.
Zombies Ate My Neighbors,
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Arcade Game, and
Duck Hunt are no longer listed for the Wii on the rating organization's website.
The most obvious interpretation is that these games are no longer planned for release on the Wii. But why would the ESRB remove the ratings? Even if Nintendo (or Konami) decided that they were
definitely not going to release the game, ever, the content rating would still be valid. And we find it very hard to believe that
Duck Hunt, a game that is pretty much synonymous with Nintendo nostalgia, has been permanently banished from the VC.
