Better question: Does the Dreamcast support the NES light gun?
Survey says---no.
I really hope you didn't mean the actual light gun. I'm not sure about the gun for Dreamcast. I don't remember anything saying it was supported.

Sorry, went a little overboard there.

sorry, i should make my question clearer.

Does Nester DC support light gun games by using a dremcast light gun?!

If not, are there plans to implement this?
Is it even possible?

DreamSNES supports it now so I bet Nester will eventually follow. Yes, it is possible.

My guess (and this is not the authorative answer of course) is that we'll see light gun support in NesterDC when KOS's new maple driver is completed - in it's current form I don't think it would be able to read the light gun position without major reworking.
