Zzap!64 reviewed the Commodore 64 game (Imagine, 8.95 pounds on cassette, joystick and keys) in September 1985 and gave it 90% overall, "among the best of arcade conversions". The review called it a direct copy of the arcade game but for the missing pole vault, and noted that it had no multi-player option.	`p. 14 (image 14), "Hyper Sports arrives — but too late"p. 14 (image 14)p. 14 (image 14), ratingsp. 14 (image 14), headingp. 14 (image 14)p. 14 (image 14)`	Magazine
Of Zzap!64's other two reviewers, one called the Commodore 64 game a first-rate conversion but missed the arcade game's power bar, its multi-player option, and its little "chests" and "bugs"; the other was impressed from the start, especially by the loading screen and music, and judged the sound better than the arcade game's, though it has no speech.	`p. 14 (image 14), first commentp. 14 (image 14)p. 14 (image 14)p. 14 (image 14), second commentp. 14 (image 14)p. 14 (image 14)`	Magazine
