Cocoto Magic Circus, also known as Cocoto Funfair in Europe, is a 2006 shoot 'em up video game released by Neko Entertainment. It is of note that the PlayStation 2 version of Cocoto Funfair is the only PlayStation 2 light gun game that does not support the GunCon 2 peripheral, as it only supports the original GunCon (G-Con 45). A Wii version of this game was released in March 2008.[1] This version was released in North America, Australia, and Europe. A sequel Cocoto Magic Circus 2 was released on December 26, 2013 for the Wii U. Up to 4 players can compete with each other in 40 different minigames.
