HYPER OLYMPIC '84 / HYPER SPORTS

• EASTER EGG: At least 6 of the 7 events have an Easter egg that offers bonus points:

Swimming: If you finish in a tie with an opponent a duck will appear and give you bonus points.

Skeet Shooting: If you manage to shoot all the clays, the last one appears as a bird and is worth 5,000 points.  Shooting it with the left barrel makes a slow-moving parrot appear (hit as many times as possible!).

Long Horse: Land on your head w/o doing any somersaults.  You’ll bounce a few times on the mat, and then a frog will appear from the roof and give you bonus points.

Archery: Get a few "Perfect" scores in a row.  A cat with an apple on its head will appear.  Hit the apple and get bonus points.

Triple Jump: There is also a plane/jet point bonus trick.

Weightlifting: When you complete a lift and the bar drops to the floor, press both left and right buttons as it hits the floor, cheerleaders will appear and you’ll receive a bonus.

• If your time runs out on a weight lift and you have one red and two white lights displayed, the lift will be counted as successful.  This is in accordance with actual competition weight lifting rules.

• BUG:  If you 'get a mole' on the pole vault, but the jump qualifies as a world record, you will not be awarded your bonus points.

• BUG:  The game lists 'Today's Top 10', but these are actually the 4th to 13th inclusive highest scores ever.  The 14th to 20th highest scores ever are also stored, but never displayed - this is why the first game after switching on a well-used machine generally gets ranked 21st.  The 1st to 3rd highest scores ever are displayed on a separate screen labeled 'Hyper Medalist'.
