Play Tv Champion (japan) Online

TV Champion was a Japan only Game Boy release from 1990, developed by Irem. It arrived early in the handheld's life, a time when developers were still figuring out how to translate console style action to that small green screen. The game is based on a real Japanese television show where contestants competed in various physical challenges, and it tries to capture that feeling in a portable format.

You control a contestant running through obstacle courses from a side view. The main goal is simply to reach the end of each stage before time runs out. Your character can run, jump, and climb over obstacles like walls and swinging ropes. The challenge comes from timing your movements precisely to avoid falling into pits or getting hit by moving hazards. The game moves at a fast pace, and the difficulty ramps up quickly, demanding quick reflexes. It feels like a frantic race against the clock where a single mistimed jump can end your run.
