Play Sesame Street Sports Online

I picked up Sesame Street Sports for the Game Boy Color back in 2001, a time when licensed games for kids were everywhere. It was published by NewKidCo, and it fit right in with the kind of simple, colorful titles that filled the handheld's library. You don't expect much depth from a game like this, just some familiar faces and straightforward fun.

You control different Sesame Street characters across six mini-games, including events like a swimming race with Grover and a high jump with Elmo. The main objective is just to play each event and try to get a high score, with mechanics that usually involve rapidly tapping buttons or timing your jumps. The pacing is quick, the difficulty is very low, and it feels exactly like the kind of distraction you'd hand to a younger sibling on a long car ride.
