A playthrough of American Technōs' 1992 competitive sports game for the NES, Crash 'n' the Boys: Street Challenge.
Though they were never labeled as installments in a unified series for their international releases, a total of five games in Technōs' multi-genre Nekketsu series were released on the NES in North America between 1988 and 1992. Crash 'n' the Boys: Street Challenge was the last of them, following Renegade ( • Renegade (NES) Playthr... ), Super Dodge Ball ( • Super Dodge Ball (NES)... ), River City Ransom ( • River City Ransom (NES... ), and Nintendo World Cup.
Crash 'n' the Boys: Street Challenge is a Track and Field style game in which teams from four high schools come together for a no holds barred intramural sporting spectacle made up of five events, including the 400m hurdles, hammer throw, rooftop jumping, swimming, and fighting scene (a 1v1 street fight).
Before each event, you can spend the medals you've won on health refills, stat boosters, abilities, specialized equipment, and even words of encouragement, most of which will provide huge advantages against your opponents.
The events are fun, fast-paced, and in a welcome shift from the usual Olympic-style button mashing fare, they feature controls akin to standard action games. I only wish that there were more of them. The ones that are here are great, but the game is too lean on content to keep it interesting in the long-term.
But that doesn't stop Crash 'n' the Boys: Street Challenge from being a worthwhile play. It looks and sounds great, it's full of character, and it's a riot to play with a group of friends.
