If you have a BlackBerry PlayBook, chances are good that you are itching for some great games. There are some good ones in BlackBerry App World, and more to come, but one of the coolest things about the PlayBook is the built in flash support, which potentially opens up the door for a ton of awesome games that can be found free, right on the internet. CrackBerry forums member Lucky45 laid out a simple way to get the retro Nintendo game Duck Hunt running on your PlayBook.
It's as simple as saving a file to your PlayBook, browsing to where the file is stored and opening it - which will launch the browser. From here you can add it to your home screen or to your browser bookmarks and enjoy Duck Hunt on your PlayBook anytime you like! Full details, including screenshots, are posted in the forum at the link below (as well as other games as people discover what works and what doesn't) so be sure to head over there and get your Duck Hunt on! Thanks Lucky45 and everyone else that has contributed!

From the Forums: How to get Duck Hunt running on your BlackBerry PlayBook!
LOL!!! Why couldn't you guys have posted this yesterday morning... It would have saved me some time, as I had to figure out how to do just this. :P
I just pulled the page up directly from my PlayBook and added to my bookmark on home page and it plays flawlessly. Skip all the extra steps and do that. fun game much like I remember from when I was a kid. Also, if you double tap the screen in game play it will maximize just like youtube videos.
Then of course drag it to your "Games" section and you've got it!
BC by doing the steps you can play the game off line...
Ahh, I missed that part of the article. Good to know now I may give that a try...
Thanks for the heads up. :)
