Teens play Duck Hunt for the first time, hate the dog as much as we did

You know, if Duck Hunt was a game released today, I’d like to think that Nintendo would have the foresight to track all the shots fired at the laughing dog in frustration. The count would be off the charts, folks. I probably shot at that dog hundreds of times growing up. Him and his stupid giggles.

The “React” series on YouTube from REACT has published a video that pits today’s teens against yesterday’s Duck Hunt, complete with the orange and gray zapper that haunted our youth. I had friends with a more gray and red zapper, oddly enough. Not sure why Nintendo released two versions, and that always confused me.

This kids are great in the clip. They hate the dog as much as I did, and it seems like they’re genuinely having fun with Duck Hunt. The addictive shooter actually managed to make an appearance at several college parties I wandered into roughly a decade ago (woof, a decade!?), and that was always awesome.

Anyone else have fond memories of shooting the dog in Duck Hunt?

Exec behind “Next Big Thing” campaign has departed Samsung

Samsung Mobile CMO, Todd Pendleton, has reportedly departed the company, according to CNET . Pendleton is credited with creating Samsung’s famous “Next Big Thing” campaign, which took aim at the company’s rivals while highlighting the benefits of its own mobile lineup. The ads were smart, terse, and ultimately helped raise the awareness of Samsung’s brand as a major smartphone maker here in the U.S. It’s unclear why Pendleton left, but it’s being reported that Samsung executives became dissatisfied with the campaign’s recent success, even going so far as auditing the mobile division’s Dallas headquarters. It seems you can only use the Next Big Thing tagline so many times; the commercials have taken a decidedly different turn over the past few months, focusing on design, functionality and features rather than bashing Samsung competitors. The timing, I suppose, seems appropriate given that Samsung has just unveiled two new flagships, the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge. Samsung is clearly

You can now control PowerPoint for iPhone with your Apple Watch

Want to master the CMO role?  Join us for GrowthBeat Summit on June 1-2 in Boston , where we'll discuss how to merge creativity with technology to drive growth. Space is limited and we're limiting attendance to CMOs and top marketing execs. Request your personal invitation here ! Microsoft today updated its PowerPoint for iOS app with a rather bizarre update: remote Apple Watch support. You can download the new version now directly from Apple’s App Store . We say this addition is “bizarre” because, well, why would anyone want to control PowerPoint on their iPhone from their Apple Watch? This PowerPoint app also works on the iPad , and we would argue it makes more sense to control a presentation on your tablet from your wrist than one that is on your smartphone. Here is the changelog so you can try to make sense of it yourself: PowerPoint Remote for Apple Watch: control your slide show on iPhone with a beautifully simple app. Start your slide show and easily navigate to

Trine 3 will hit Steam Early Access next week

The Trine games are really cool. They’re a special blend of puzzle platforming and action, and Frozenbyte has done a great job creating and supporting a fan base for its efforts. Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power will be available on Steam Early Access next week. It’s going to sell for $19.99, and you can find the Early Access specific trailer at the head of this post. What’s especially interesting about Trine 3 is that it marks the franchise’s first transition to 3D gameplay. Frozenbyte indicates on the Early Access page that its decision to release the game to the community early stems out of its need to make the 3D segments feel right. Trine 3 is our first move towards 3D-gameplay in the Trine series, so we wanted to get in touch with our player-base in an early enough phase to collect feedback on the new gameplay features, so we can tweak those into the right direction. Early Access can hopefully provide us with lots of players willing to do this. See full gallery on TechnoBuff
