City Patrolman + Retro Light Gun + TV Game + Console + PAL-B + GM-806A

An unusual City Patrolman retro light gun TV game console, model GM-806A, dating from approximately the late 1990s to early 2000s. This complete PAL-B gaming system was sourced from the remaining stock of a closed-down game shop in France and is particularly interesting for collectors of obscure retro consoles, CRT gaming equipment and unusual video game hardware.

The console, light gun and game components appear unused and remain in their original packaging with the instruction manual. The outer box has significant wear and creasing from many years of storage, which is clearly shown in the photographs.

Unlike modern games consoles, City Patrolman is a dedicated CRT television light-gun gaming system. The player uses the supplied gun controller to shoot on-screen enemies across a selection of arcade-style stages while avoiding incoming fire.

Gameplay

City Patrolman is a simple arcade-style, on-rails shooting game played using the supplied light gun.

Players can choose from six themed stages, including:

• Bank
• Wild West
• Mine
• Construction site
• Desert
• Training stage

Enemies appear around the screen and must be shot before they reduce the player's health. The system includes automatic and manual shooting options, multiple lives and stage selection.

Important TV Compatibility

This is a PAL-B CRT-era light gun system.

Traditional light guns depend on the scanning technology used by older cathode-ray tube televisions and generally will not function correctly with modern LCD, LED or OLED televisions.

For this reason, the system is best suited to:

• Collectors with compatible PAL CRT televisions
• Retro gaming displays
• Video game hardware collections
• CRT gaming enthusiasts
• Collectors of unusual European consoles

International buyers should check television format, voltage and connection compatibility before purchasing.

Condition

The console, gun and included components appear unused and remain in their original fitted packaging.

The outer cardboard box is heavily worn from long-term storage, including creasing, surface wear and age-related deterioration. Please study the photographs carefully, as the original packaging condition forms part of the item's overall vintage condition.

The instruction booklet is also included.

Perfect for

• Retro video game collectors
• Light gun game collectors
• CRT gaming enthusiasts
• Vintage electronics collections
• 1990s and early-2000s gaming collections
• Unusual console collectors
• European PAL gaming collections
• Display in gaming rooms and retro collections

Collector Interest

What makes this system particularly interesting is its relative obscurity compared with mainstream consoles from Nintendo, Sega, Sony and Microsoft.

For collectors who enjoy discovering lesser-known gaming hardware, dedicated TV games and unusual light-gun systems, the City Patrolman offers an interesting piece of late-20th-century gaming history.

The original box, instruction manual and apparently unused components also make this a more complete example for display and preservation.
