Various games utilized this hardware; the only ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]''-related entry to utilize it was ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]'', where it was also seen and used by [[Mario]] in-game. | The '''Super Scope''', known as the '''Nintendo Scope''' in European languages, is a {{wp|light gun}} peripheral for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]].

Melee]]'', allowing players to fire energy balls at their opponents, either in dozens of small bullets or several large charged-up shots (three in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''; five in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'').
