The HyperShot (ハイパーショット) is a special controller developed by Konami for use with their track and field games, Track & Field/Hyper Olympic and its sequel, Hyper Sports. It was designed primarily for the MSX adaptions of these games, although is also advertised as being compatible with the SG-1000, Atari 2600 and PC-6001 range of computers. Smaller variants were later produced for the Famicom.

The HyperShot is a reduced controller, lacking a D-Pad but with larger "jump" and "run" buttons for easier play. From a Sega perspective is has virtually no use outside of the SG-1000 port of Hyper Sports, although will technically function with any SG-1000 (or Sega Master System) game.

No versions of the HyperShot were released outside of Japan.
