Hamster Is Bringing Konami's Hyper Sports To The Switch eShop Next Week

No I wont but, I do hope there wil be more Konami games coming.

What's the percentage of pixel games on the estore, has to be 70%+ surely? Is there any decent mixed sports games on the switch?

YES!
they need a subscription service for these games.
some aren't worth the $8 while others are more than worth $10

@Swizze Sonic and Mario Olympics reminded me of this game especially the 8/16 bit sports

I love those weird Mario heads on those bodies with legs that go all the way to the ground

@w00dm4n I'm 50/50 about Mario and sonic olympics, not sure if it's worth getting.

That's so ironic ! 🤪
Hamster bring Hyper Sports to Nintendo Switch while Hyper Sports R by Konami is still not clear will be released on Switch or scrapped.

It will be even more interesting than Track & Field to me, because I had versions of both on MSX and I can see the sports here being rather different than MSX Hyper Sports ones.

Will get both. I loved Track & Field, nostalgia for me. There are FAR too many pixel games on the Switch. Some are classic, some not.

@Moroboshi876
To me too. I'd love to play ALL of the MSX Konami games again. My dream is they bring a collection to modern platforms someday.

Yes, I'll be grabbing this. As for too many pixel games? You do know you aren't expected to buy them all y'know! Keep em coming.

@Paperboy Yes, they mixed sports in MSX releases (there are 2 Track & Fields and 3 Hyper Sports), even added new ones, like diving. But it would be great if they released a MSX Konami classics collection, yes, that would be great.

I’m not sure I’d want to do button mashing on those little buttons on the Joycons. Now if I could take the joycons off the console and waggle them to simulate the button presses I think that might work and would save on wear and tear of the controller (at least until one launch it at the TV because I didn’t use the straps).

I was hoping a Capcom vs SNK 2 from Hamster.

@Moroboshi876 I didn't know about the Track & Fields on MSX, but I used to play Hyper Sports a lot as a kid. Diving was one of my favourites!

Give us the Konami Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade games
They already been selling the 1up arcade machines with the roms so they should be able to release it onto consoles as well

Always remember Track and Field lingering in the arcades well into the 90s, but never really recall this follow up. At least not in the UK

I loved this game but yes it will smash up buttons!!!

@Paperboy oh, yes please! I actually just sold a bunch of MSX Konami carts, so I'd really love it if they became playable on the Switch.

@Swizze I like Mario Vs Sonic. The soccer is pretty good, the rugby is awesome and then you get everything else.

@ClassSonicSatAm at least sunset riders. There isn't even any licensing issues there. On the other hand somehow konami must have gotten permission to use the tmnt license already as you mentioned.

@Anti-Matter yeah, seriously what happened with that title. Haven’t heard a thing since it was announced.

@Swizze Super Sportsmatchen is great fun. It's a pixel game too but it has a great sense of humour.

Ah, Hyper Sports... One of the world's first joystick wreckers...
Makes JoyCon drift look like a common cold....

Would have preferred "'88 Games".

Well, here's another good use for a fight stick. Maybe these Sanwa buttons will do better than the original arcade buttons.

Love this game. Insta-buy.

I broke a Quick Shot II joystick for my ZX Spectrum 48K because of this game. I absolutely love it, a definite day one purchase for me. Also, this brings back happy memories of watching First Class on BBC 1 in the late 1980's.

@sixrings never understood why Konami doesn't release sunset riders anymore, as you said, they own the ip
