Track & Field

Track & Field combines the events of the two separate Japanese cartridges Hyper Olympic and Hyper Sports into a new game, which was a very good idea, because with a total of eight events you get more fun for your money. All events are very well playable and motivating. The game had a very late release date in Europe (1992) and apparently they renamed the title to profit from the fact that this was the year of the Olympic Summer Games in Barcelona (Spain).

The Armchair Olympics Are On The Air! This ain't no 20-minute workout. It's the ultimate in head-to-head athletic competition, in 8 grueling events. 100-Meter Dash. Long Jump. Hurdles. Javelin. Skeet Shooting. Triple Jump. Archery. And the High Jump. No timeouts, no breathers, no water boys. Just you and your own exhaustion. So get psyched. Pick your level of competition and the opening event. Then block out the roar of the crowd, and take a deep breath. Because it's not whether you win or lose. It's whether you survive.
