Surprised you did not mention Summer Games: Skeet shooting which is one
everyone mentioned.

Yes the Bobsled was a favorite in Winter Games.

Nearly?  Do you know how many Atari Joysticks I went through on those games? 
Especially the ones you had to cross controll the Up/Down + Left / Right
quadrants?  The Epyx joysticks were best for these events as well as the WilCo
Commander joysticks.

Oh and word to the wise, never play the 100 Meter Dash when you are on the
phone with a girlfriend.  You WILL be asked what you are doing, and you might
(as in my case.) be called a liar when you respond that you are playing a
computer game.
