Hyper Sports, known in Japan as Hyper Olympic '84 (ハイパーオリンピック'84?) is a video game published in 1984. It is the sequel to Konami's Track & Field and features seven all-new Olympic events. Like its predecessor, Hyper Sports featured two run buttons and one action button per player. Like its predecessor, the Japanese release of the game sported an official license for the 1984 Summer Olympics. While not quite achieving the commercial and critical success of Track and Field, Hyper Sports still proved to be very popular among gamers.

Famous quotes containing the word sports:
“It was so hard to pry this door open, and if I mess up I know the people behind me are going to have it that much harder. Because then there’s living proof. They can sit around and say, “See? It doesn’t work.” I don’t want to be their living proof.”
—Gayle Gardner, U.S. sports reporter. As quoted in Sports Illustrated, p. 87 (June 17, 1991)
