One of my favourite games. I had it on Commodore 64 first I think. On tape.

Haha. That tape extension was expensive. We had some formula 1 game and cricket.

Also I remember skateboarding, PGA golf and the Summer Olympics. ☺

I broke so many joysticks playing Summer Olympics.

Haha. If I can remember correctly you had to slam that joystick left and right a million times just make your athlete run fast.

Yep. Ended up with a crate full of joysticks. Sometimes, if you left them for a while, they'd start working again. Had about 10 in the crate I think, as my older cousin gave me his. There was always one that worked, but it could take a while to find it.
