Game Overview

Remember when the Olympics were just pure, pixelated chaos? Capcom Barcelona '92 on the NES nails that vibe—it's less about realism and more about mashing buttons to outrun your friends in events like the 100m dash or hurling a javelin into the stratosphere. The controls are dead simple (hold right and mash A to sprint, basically), but good luck not laughing when someone faceplants over a hurdle.

The graphics are classic early '90s Capcom—bright colors, chunky sprites, and a soundtrack that’ll get stuck in your head. It’s not exactly Track & Field, but that’s the charm. Two-player mode is where it shines, turning what should be an athletic event into a button-mashing slap fight. Just don’t expect deep mechanics—this is pure arcade nonsense, and I mean that as a compliment.

If you’ve got a soft spot for janky retro sports games, this one’s a riot with the right crowd.
