As a californian as well, I can say that that’s bullshit

You wanna know another difference I noticed? Glass Joe's personality has one very important inconsistency. In the first Punch Out, he frequently mentions wanting to retire and that this is his last match. He says nothing of the sort in the Wii version. He's still an absolute loser when it comes to fighting, sure... And yet, he doesn't give up, ever. Think about it. The man has lost 99 times, and you're number 100. Who wouldn't give up when reflecting on such an awful track record? Glass Joe, that's who. He's been beaten to a pulp one hundred times and he just won't *quit*. When we think of French stereotypes, we see cowardly wimps prone to giving up. And at a cursory glance, Joe seems to reinforce that stereotype; he is indeed a scrawny pushover. Except he actually defies the stereotype, because he's a character who never gives up, even in the face of a long string of failures and constant ridicule. And then we get to the title defense mode. After one hundred losses, Joe receives a protective helmet to prevent permanent damage, and with that, he suddenly gains the strength to make it all the way to a match against the champion. You. And chances are, he'll catch you off guard and beat you. Which means that, just for a while... Glass Joe is champion of the WVBA. The muppet, the joke character, the one everyone points and laughs at... Becomes champion. Purely because he lost one hundred times and yet stood up once more to try again. I'd call that inspiring.

@joedatius

Ай бұрын

well I think that it all comes down to how something is being shown. the characters in the early punchout games are just kinda boring stereotypes like DeeJay in the early Street Fighter game since all he was is the stereotype but the Wii punchout game does what later street fighter games did and fleshed out the character to have the stereotype to be just a background aspect of the character to display their culture in a lighthearted way

One thing that Goomba sort of touched on, but didn't quite -- a lot of these characters are drawing their characterization from things their nationality would consider positive about themselves. Russian tenacity and ability to take a pounding and keep going (Popinski IIRC is the only main character that gets a healing move), Turkish brutal effectiveness (yes, they are proud of this, they ruled a large empire by main force and aren't afraid to let anyone know about it), The civilized Spanish fighter who could charm and kill in the same breath, Irish roguishness, Indian meditation and centeredness, Canadian rugged individualism -- these are things that the cultures these people come from draw strength and identity from. Hell, even the pushovers give it a go, if Glass Joe goes one up on you you see the French ideal of courageous defiance in the face of hopeless odds, and if he actually knocks you out (shame on you!) he yells "Vive la France!" and Von Kaiser's few good moves are all about German precision and efficiency. Both fighters are well past their prime years (as are their nations) but they try to stay faithful to the old cultures (as do their nations) so even the pushovers are more or less culturally sensitive.

hagamapama Having sparred a guy from Moscow and two from Istanbul, I can confirm this. The Russian guy, who was 7 feet tall and one of my boxing instructors at the time, never seemed to be bothered by pain at all, even when during a sparring round he accidentally twisted his ankle and limped for a couple of steps to the corner. Afterwatds, he just casually says with no change in his expression whatsoever, "My leg is broken. I need to sit out for a few seconds before I can get back in." With the Turkish boxers, who were both brothers, every time I had a match with either one of them my punches seemed to just annoy them. Even when I got a couple of really hard body shots on their ribs a couple of times all that seemed to do was just make them want to knock me out even harder than earlier, like trying to poke a bear with a stick. Once I got more experience under my belt I would usually beat them in the ring by playing it smart and dodging their blows, waiting for an opening in their guard they give me because of how blinded they would get by rage. But holy shit, despite only being around 150 lbs. like I was they both hit like they had hands made out of iron!

Oliver Mumford Stereotypes means you exspect some trait from someone because of his origin or apperance, which don't have to be a bad trait, like all canadians are polite, all asians are smart. racism means someone is portrayed as inferior because of his origin/appearance.

As a german, Von Kaiser does carry stereotypes that me and pretty much every german person I know rather dislikes yet the creators of Punch Out somehow made it work, so now I actually like Von Kaiser, he has a certain charm and I think that applies to every character

I think that it helps that the "big tough German" thing Von Kaiser does is a front he puts on to help him overcome his nervousness and anxiety. Dude's very clearly got some kind of stage fright yet puts that in check for the match. Big props. He also trains children, so he's clearly a softy when not boxing.

I always viewed the NES game as being cartoonish and absurd to begin with. You're placing a half-pint with a Napolean Complex in the ring with characters that were not meant to have any more depth than a WWE wrestler and you're expecting artistic nuance? ALL characters in this game including the american ones are stereotyped. No single character in this game representing it's own region gets spared this treatment so what else is there to do but laugh at it? If you want to get symbolic you could say the boxers you go up against represent the inner stereotypes we place upon others and we must combat these stereotypes in our own mind if we want to become a better person.

As an American, I notice a lot of similar things between myself and even people who are completely different from me in every other way, but I've had foreign friends point things out that crack me up because they're so true and I never noticed them before.

I'll have to disagree. Yes, poking fun on racial stereotypes or any stereotypes for that mayter isn't inherently offensive, that depends on context. Make a racial or sexist joke in your white gentlemen club (which we all belong to, of course) and I don't see the problem. Nobody is directly or even indirectly harmed as simple joke probably isn't enough to sway minds of adults. But say that same thing pubclicly, especially as authority and that's whole different case even if by some lucky coincidence nobody targeted heard the joke, you at the very least make racism more acceptable for people listening. Same thing about children who don't yet understand difference between joke and statement. And finally, if you make fun someone's stereotypes in their vicinity, it's offensive if they say so, whether you agree or not. So again, if you're discreet about it, correct, it's not inherently racist. Sadly, way too many people aren't and don't even intend to

They talk about if it's racist or not in that series, and the consensus was that no, it wasn't, because they made fun of EVERY race, including their own, meaning that everyone was on equal ground, and no one was any worse or better than the other. Each had a horrible stereotype, but at the same time, were respectful enough to make fun of their own races as well, and not give them the upper hand, having developed the game. I believe that's really important to the discussion, and shows that it wasn't really racist, just poking fun at the various different stereotypes of different countries.

I respectfully disagree. I think each and every Punch Out game is racist. Whether it be the Wii game or the one for the arcades, its still racist. Was it the right decision? I don't know, and this is coming from a huge fan of the series who owns all the games, and plays the arcade version at a nearby retrocade. Nintendo probably realized how offended some might be after seeing all the stereotypes were, and that may be part of the reason they included Piston Honda. To avoid any accusations. That's also probably the reason Bear Hugger was one of the 2 Super Punch Out characters to be brought back in the Wiimake. Since the game was made in Canada, they probably wanted to bring in a Canadian to smooth things out. Speaking of the wiimake, if the Punch Out games are racist, then the wiimake would therefore be the most racist one. The stereotypes in that game are even more outrageous in that game than they are in any previous entry. And you know what? That's half the reason Punch Out!! is one of my favorite series of all time (The other being the solid game play.) The character never fail to make me laugh. Bear Hugger, who is perhaps one of the most overly stereotyped characters, I remember genuinly made me laugh out loud when I first got the game and me and my best friend played pass the controller with the game. (Especially when he says, "I like raw fish" in his over the top Canadian accent during one of the in between round intermissions. Than he falls asleep. WTF xD) They arn't even mostly positive. They're not mostly negative either, its about half and half. But the same could be said about the NES one. Basically, look at Darth Ender X. He said that even if you convey good steryotypes, they're still racist. Just look at his comment to get a feel for what I mean. Yes. In his words, "To answer your question, yes, it his racist." But in a good way. A way that many fans have fallen in love for. In the end, I don't hate Gaijin Goomba. Or you. In fact, i've been a fan of Gaijin for a long time, and like the little fan boy I am, I agree with a lot he says. I just respectfully disagree this time. Anyway, I know you said you don't respond to comments of users who don't agree with you, but I know you'll still see this. And if you delete it, i'll know for certain you saw. But anyway, thanks for reading, no matter the response I get. And this response isn't just for Caitlin, but for anybody who happens to read this. Yes, Punch Out is racist. Not purposely. And its not meant to be mean. But it is. But I guess you could say its racist in a way that puts the cream of humor and great character on the already impressive cake of the game.

Bro, I saw this video like 5 years ago and it popped up in my feed today! Insightful video. God bless✝️❤️

Racist no Stereotypical in my opinion very 😂

Translation for Piston Honda: “Sushi Divine wind Mount Fuji Japan position”

Fun fact: in the virtual console and NES classic version of punch out Piston Honda talking about NHK was removed and instead he says “Where are my camera crew? Hello Tokyo!”

***** Good point. People don't make nearly as many jokes about him, though.

Glass Joe is still saying "My boxing gloves are too tight..." though. Oh well.

That's not a bad thing tho. They are still characters. And Glass Joe is still a wimp. Von Kaiser is still cocky as hell (and kinda silly) and Bald Bull... is just mad. I don't see these as negative. After all, you still wanna beat the shit out of them. Not because of their nationality but because you're in a goddamn boxing match. xD

ShyGuyXXL As for King Hippo.. Is he even supposed to be human in the Wii one? He gives off a hairless Donkey Kong vibe (ironic given his inclusion)

Also keep in mind in Title Defense, Glass Joe actually has confidence and overall improved fighting style(enough to defeat an average player).

pious83 never mention that character again

As a French person, I personally really like Glass Joe. His weakness and cowardly personality helped him being the most iconic character from any Punch Out! game, and I even relate to him sometimes. And about the hole characters in general, I really appreciate the fact that they all have a personality because it helps the players see real people instead of being like "ho wow I've beaten RandomBoxer1, now I need to defeat RandomBoxer2". It's also their personality that makes me care about a boxing game, because I a don't care about boxing in general.

He's iconic because he is level one. Everyone who has ever played a game has seen level one.

If a Texan boxer got in And he was a cowboy I'd think that would be awesome

Wears a cowboy hat and his special move has him throwing six punches in quick succession. When he is stunned sheriff badges and cows circle his head instead of the typical stars.
