International Track & Field 2000 is one of those N64 sports games that actually makes button-mashing feel like an Olympic event. You’ve got your usual suspects—100m dash, long jump, javelin—but the real fun kicks in when you realize how much the game leans into that arcade-style chaos. The controls are simple (mash A to run, time your jumps), but nailing the rhythm for pole vault or hammer throw takes some practice.

Where it shines is multiplayer. Grab a friend, pick your events, and prepare for some seriously intense couch competition. The training mode helps, but honestly, half the fun is just winging it and seeing who can mash buttons faster. The graphics are dated now, but there’s something weirdly satisfying about watching your little pixel athlete flail their way to victory.

If you’re into sports games that don’t take themselves too seriously, this one’s a solid pick for a lazy afternoon with friends.
