Track & Field was published for the Atari 2600 in 1984, during the Great Video Game Crash, so it was rather rare.

Ah, I see. I´ve never seen T&F boxed in the last times. I like the game as well - outstanding graphics on the VCS and advanced gameplay make it to one of the best sportgames on the system. Decathlon is the classic. When I think back I destroyed 2 (normal) controllers with this game in the 80´s.

I tried playing Decathlon with an Atari 2600 joystick once.  I worked up a bigger sweat than playing Wii Sports for that same amount of time!
