Hyper Athlete

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hyper Athlete is an update of Konami's Track & Field series, in which up to four players compete in eleven different Olympic events. All six events from the first game, 1983's "Track and Field", are included; but tellingly, only three events (swimming, pole vault and triple jump) are taken from the less accomplished sequel, Hyper Sports. Hyper Athlete uses the three-button control system of its predecessors (two RUN buttons and one ACTION button per player) and the eleven disciplines can be attempted in any order. The available events are :

  • 100M DASH
  • LONG JUMP
  • FREESTYLE SWIMMING
  • 110M HURDLES
  • HAMMER THROW
  • DISCUS
  • SHOT PUT
  • JAVELIN
  • SWIMMING
  • TRIPLE JUMP
  • POLE VAULT
