Hyper Athlete

Hyper Athlete (also known as "International Track & Field" in some parts of the world) 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
