Hyper Olympic adapts the Konami multisport arcade on Famicom with its Olympic athletic events based on fast button mashing. The representation offers events at arcade tempo with power bars and records in a founding Olympic sport formula. Without western release, curiosity for Famicom multisport fans, classic of the 8 bit Konami catalog.

Collector interest

Limited Genteiban edition of Konami's adaptation of the track-and-field cabinet, distributed in a restricted run distinct from the ordinary 1983 retail. The frantic button-mashing specific to the game built the series' reputation, and the Genteiban marking flags a special packaging sought for its controlled-version cachet. Desirability rests on this status as a period limited edition, rarer than the standard Hyper Olympic run.
