Winter Games is a sports title that was released on numerous other systems including the NES (1987).
+ Bobsled has a good sense of speed and the impressive draw distance gives you ample time to plan turns.
+ Ski Jump's tough mid-air jostling is rewarding, and Biathlon's complexity makes for an engaging multi-genre event.
+ Speed Skating is a quick blast of racing, but it cleverly tasks you with timing button presses rather than mashing the controls.
- CPU contestants don't join you in the single player leaderboard, and continuously winning gold feels rather soulless.
- A few more events would have increased the game's longevity, as the four events won't hold your attention for long.
- Music is a mixture of clashing notes with some horrendous bass tones that sound like the console is about to combust.
