Also, there were no other guides for this game when I started, so I thought I'd have one. Oh yeah, and I want to write more FAQs so I can fill my contributors page on gamefaqs! ^_^ Send me your tips/cheats, and especially best Times! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= 100m =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The 100m is the first event in the full Olympics. This is one of the easier events in the game. You usually will win a medal in this event. Start just after the gun is fired. To Run: tap A and B intermittently as quickly as possible. To Duck for the line: Hold C when you are just about to reach the line, keep tapping A nad B as you are holding C. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Shot Put =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Shot Put is a difficult event. It takes much practice to be able to throw over 70 metres. To speed up your swing: tap A and B intermittently To start/ Throw: tap C. Throw when you are about 2/3rds of the way up to the line. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Archery =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Archery is one of the easier events, but it takes time. To pull back arrow: hold Left and press A when fully pulled back. To Aim: move D-Pad around and try to hit yellow part of target. To Shoot: press A Don't shoot straight away because you have lots of time. If you forget to pull back the arrow, aim for the top of the target around the middle, and you can get an 8! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= 110m Hurdles =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The 110m hurdles is just like the 100m, but with Hurdles(of course!) This is slightly more difficult than the 100m To run: same as 100m To Jump: tap C when you are close to the hurdle, you'll figure out when to do it exactly To Duck: hold C when approaching the line. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Pole Vault =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This one is really tricky. It takes hours, days even months of practice. To run up: A and B alternately To Vault: Press down to put down the pole, followed by Up/Left to vault. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Diving =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Diving, like shot put takes lots of practice. The best way to learn to do this is watch the Demos in Training Mode. For the first 4 dives I always chose the hardest of the 3rd dive. For the fifth dive I chose the 2nd position - 3rd dive. To Extend diving board(for more difficult dives): Hold A+Left To jump up at middle of board: tap Up To jump off end of board/spring up off it: tap down To Spin: Hold Left/Right To hold feet: hold A To twist: press B To Dive into water: Hold Down -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Swimming =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Swimming is one of the more difficult events. It involves 4 lengths of the pool. You don't go full speed like the 100m, you hhave to keep pace with the other swimmers to conserve energy. To Swim: A+B intermittently, Hold C when coming to the end of length to turn You can press A+B quicker on the return length. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Points =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- In this game there is a points system used to reward you for consistently doing well(maybe not a medal, but well). After each event you can see how many points you recieved for that event, and how many points you have overall. The points system runs like this: 24 points for 1st 23 points for 2nd 22 points for 3rd 21 points for 4th 20 points for 5th 19 points for 6th 18 points for 7th 17 points for 8th and so on..... The Maximum points you can recieve overall is: 24 x 7 = 168 You can only get this if you win each event. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Tips/Cheats =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Send me some Tips/Cheats -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Game Genie Codes =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- UK Codes: Codes courtessy of Game Genie Programming Manual JBJA-AEBW Players are more powerful 2BJA-AABW Players are less powerful BKSA-AA3T Player never tires in Swimming AEMT-AABW and AGFT-AACJ Archery consists of 1 shot instead of 6 AJMT-AABW and ALFT-AACJ Archery consists of 2 shots ANMT-AABW and ARFT-AACJ Archery consists of 3 shots ATMT-AABW and AWFT-AACJ Archery consists of 4 shots BAMT-AABW and BCFT-AACJ Archery consists of 8 shots BJMT-AABW and BLFT-AACJ Archery consists of 10 shots BTMT-AABW and BWFT-AACJ Archery consists of 12 shots Training Mode Codes: AYHA-BA2C Player always in Lane 6 Mini and Full Olympic Codes AFPA-CAEL Hammer Throw and Archery consist of 1 Round AKPA-CAEL Hammer Throw and Archery consist of 2 Rounds AZPA-CAEL Hammer Throw and Archery consist of 5 Rounds A7PA-CAEL Hammer Throw and Archery consist of 7 Rounds BFPA-CAEL Hammer Throw and Archery consist of 9 Rounds AFTT-CAHL and 87VA-CAFR 1 Attempt at each Pole Vault height AKTT-CAHL and B7VA-CAFR 2 Attempt at each Pole Vault height AZTT-CAHL and B7VA-CAFR 5 Attempt at each Pole Vault height A7TT-CAHL and B7VA-CAFR 7 Attempt at each Pole Vault height BFTT-CAHL and B7VA-CAFR 9 Attempt at each Pole Vault height AFPA-CAD4 Diving Consists of 1 Round AKPA-CAD4 Diving consists of 2 Rounds APPA-CAD4 Diving consists of 3 Rounds AVPA-CAD4 Diving consists of 4 Rounds -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Records =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This section is for the records you set in the events.
