Gotcha! The Sport! is a 1987 light gun shooter video game developed by Atlus and published by LJN for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). It is a licensed adaptation of the 1985 film Gotcha!, adapting the paintball tournament from the film's opening sequence. The player controls a competitor in a capture-the-flag tournament, using both the Zapper light gun and the D-pad controller to aim and navigate scrolling levels simultaneously.

The game was marketed to support LJN's Entertech line of paintball and water guns. Critics gave the game mixed to positive reviews, praising its unique control scheme while criticizing its repetitive gameplay loop.
