Up to eight players can enter this international contest of seven Olympic events, which include hurdles, swimming, skeet shooting, the 100-yard dash, swimming relay, gymnastics and rowing.
The object is to lead your country to victory by winning the most number of events. An event is won either by scoring the fastest time or by piling up more points than your opponent. The nation that wins the most events takes home the gold medal.
The left difficulty switch is used to indicate the number of joysticks that will be used. For head-to-head competition, you must select the 'A' position to indicate you will use two joysticks. After each player chooses a country to compete for, the competition begins.
The select switch is used to enter practice mode. Each of the events can be cycled through with the joystick. To return to competition, use the select switch again.
