 In 1974, Yamauchi, in an attempt to revive Nintendo, released a smaller, cheaper version of the Laser Clay Shooting System, titled "Mini Laser Clay".Deployed mostly in arcades, players shoot moving targets, provided by a 16mm film projector, at an arcade cabinet.This system featured several games and achieved significant success for Nintendo throughout the mid to late 1970s, which helped the company out of its financial situation.
