    I rented Baby Boomer last night.  It is put out by Color Dreams which
    is probably why you don't see it in the stores.  It is not licensed
    by Nintendo.   The box says that it is the best rated game for the
    light gun.
    
    Baby Boomer is looking for his Mom.  You have to help him by shooting
    all of the baddies and dangers along the way.  There are different
    scenes.  In the 2nd level, he is in a graveyard.   Mommies, bats, 
    spiders, etc try to get him.  You have to shoot at all of the milk
    bottles or he runs out of milk and loses a life.  When you lose a life,
    he starts crying.
    
    This game is very good.   The graphics are good (would rate them as a
    7, about as good as Simon's Quest).  One of the good points is that
    2 can play at the same time.  One uses the gun and the other can use
    a controller.  A  [x]  shows up in the screen when you use the controller
    so that you know where you are aiming.   My nephews had a ball with
    this game (5&7).  The game is VERY challenging.  My sister and I played
    together as a team and it took us over an hour trying to get through
    stage 3.   We couldn't put it down.  I don't see how 1 person could get
    through this game.  The first 2 stages you can get through by yourself,
    but the 3rd seems impossible.  Just got to the 4th and forget about
    that one.  Your in some kind of castle.    
    
    I'd give this game an 8.  (10 for difficulty)
    
    If anyone sees it for sale in Southern, NH, please let me know.  I'd
    like to buy it for my nephews for Christmas.
