Surely you mean non-crts (or flat panel displays)? This is a flat screen tv and it should work just fine with duck-hunt -> http://www.amazon.com/Sony-WEGA-KV-27FS13-27-Flat-Screen/dp/...

Flat-panel displays killed one of my favorite genres of video games. As far as I know, all attempts at producing an modern, accurate light gun have failed. The Nintento Wii tries to act like a light gun controller, but the accuracy is awful.
