I think I went through about 4 SNES controllers with super street fighter 2..

:D
 
I have it and quite enjoy it. The button bashing is a bit over the top though, I struggle to come any place higher than 7th in the 100m and swimming events! The weightlifting is also a bit annoying. All good fun though.
 
I gave it a bit of a run in the store last week, didn't do much for me.

Thought we were past the days of button bashing in order to win games.

What they should do is:

(for 100m sprint for example)

Flash either a triangle, X, square or circle on the screen > then when you press it it changes to another random one, etc. etc.

The quicker you react to which button you need to press, the quicker you run.

Thoughts?

Sounds better then pounding the hell out of the controller to move a few inches, I remember playing the '98 Winter Olympics on N64, my thumbs were sore for weeks after playing it.

Here's a tip to win in the swimming and the 100m -- use the bottom of a cigarette lighter. Rest it between the buttons before the start of the event, and then jiggle it left and right like crazy. Works unreal, but you can expect to go through yr controllers quicker.

Mate just came back from Bali and has bought me a copy. I find swimming and short distance running extremely hard. Got a few gold on the track, triple jump, discus, and setting a world record on Long Jump.Got bronze in pole vault. I only managed a bronze on the mens and womens vault. After a few trys i collected a silver medal in Archery. I also suck at shooting and jumping :).

What medals have you collected and what records have u beaten.
