Summer Challenge on the Genesis is one of those early '90s sports compilations that somehow makes track and field events feel intense—even when you're just mashing buttons. You've got your standard stuff like swimming and hurdles, but the real chaos starts in the javelin throw, where timing feels just unpredictable enough to keep you swearing at the screen.

The graphics are pure nostalgia—blocky sprites, bright colors, and that unmistakable Sega "blip" sound when you nail a jump. It’s not exactly polished by today’s standards, but there’s something weirdly satisfying about barely scraping by in the 100m dash because your thumb slipped at the last second.

Best played with a friend for maximum trash-talking potential. Just don’t blame me if your controller doesn’t survive the sprint events.
