heya,
there was a game I used to play for NES that had a multiplayer mode (I don't remember playing single player at all) where you would just compete against a friend in a series of minigames. I tried looking it up and the only one I found that came close was the "field meet" mode of "Little Ninja Brothers," but I'm sure that wasn't the game. the only minigame I remember was one where you had to jump over logs from an above view. I might be wrong about this detail, but I also remember them being some type of anime cavemen.
thanks in advance.

Cavemen and minigames?

Caveman Games?

nah, I've played that one and it's hilarious, but not the same at all

No idea why but I had a dream about this thread last night. That I was on a quiz show and saw part of the game and had to name it...and I got it wrong.

Sorry for the relatively OT post, but I figured it was kooky enough to post. :tease:

I'll help look for it on the 'net. Two questions- did it require any peripherals (like the floor pad) to play, and around what year do you remember playing it?

What did you guess it was?

we played with the regular controllers, and I'm gonna guess it was before 96. probably even earlier than that

@ Zelden - Caveman Games, lol

@ Wred - That leaves the entire NES library open, then...I'd been hoping to narrow it down a tad. Ah, well, ~gets to looking~

Possibilities I've found:

Trog (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trog_(video_game))

That's it so far...I'll keep searchin'
