Is Ganbare! Nippon! Olympic 2000 still worth playing in 2026?
Under official license of the Sydney Olympic Games, Ganbare Nippon Olympic 2000 offers a medley of sporting events in the arcade tradition of button mashing and tight timing, inherited from Konami's Track and Field. The hundred meters, swimming and archery play out in a few moments of intensity, and the fun emerges in multiplayer. In solo, weariness comes quickly and the presentation is modest. For nights among friends and fans of arcade sport nostalgic for the Olympic spirit, the effectiveness still delivers.
