Punch-Out is awesome, with or without Mike.

I think the gameplay still holds up to this day. I can't think any other fighting game that actively punishes you for not deciphering boss patterns and just spamming buttons to win.

Mike Tyson or Mr. Dream is not the thing that comes to mind when I think of Punch Out. Just the sheer fun of dodging and countering at the right time is what I love about this game.

I know most people would prefer to play against Mike just because he's such a legend. But if you live in Europe, the Mike Tyson version actually is a lot better because the Mr Dream version is not properly PAL optimized. Only the music is but the gameplay is too slow, and not only can it lead to problems like dodging too early, but also annoying things like the opponent intros not being in sync with the music. There are also some small sound improvements in the original PAL version that are all gone in the Mr Dream version.

Mario is basically the Nintendo version of Barbie. In the past 40 years since his inception, he's been a plumber, a chef, a doctor, a sports/olympic athlete, a pilot... You name it, he's probably done it at some point.

0:40: “(cue ‘Superstar’ by The Carpenters) Back on Christmas Night 1987, a 17-year-old named Little Mac shocked the boxing world by upsetting the undefeated Super Macho Man, ending his 35-0 run and taking the WVBA Heavyweight Championship of the World from the Hollywood native. But now, a new challenger has emerged, and his name is the legendary Mr. Dream. With an undefeated record of 99-0, Mr. Dream has racked up win after win after win after win after win after win after win after win after win after win. Tonight, Mr. Dream looks to kick off 1988 in grand fashion as he tries to not only extend his record to 100-0, but to also take the WVBA Heavyweight Championship of the World from Little Mac… (cue 1980-84 Showtime jingle) …on Showtime Championship Boxing! We welcome you, LIVE, to The Forum in Inglewood, California, a suburb of Los Angeles, where tonight, Little Mac puts both his 27-0 record and his WVBA Heavyweight Championship of the World on the line in a 12-round battle against the legendary 99-0 #1 ranked contender Mr. Dream. Good evening, everyone. I’m Steve Albert and welcome to the first Showtime Championship Boxing of 1988, and, on behalf of all of us at Showtime, we wish you a happy new year. Just 8 days ago, Little Mac shocked the world by ending Super Macho Man’s 35-0 record and becoming the new WVBA Heavyweight Champion of the World, and wishing everyone a Merry Christmas. Now, tonight, the Bronx native has a new challenger waiting in the wings, and that’s the 99-0 Mr. Dream. As always, I’m joined by the fight doctor Ferdie Pacheco and Bobby Czyz, and, gentlemen, it’s the dream match we thought we would never, ever see.”-Steve Albert.

42:02: “He’s not gonna get up, Bobby.”-Ferdie Pacheco. “IT’S ALL OVER! LITTLE MAC HAS KNOCKED OUT MR. DREAM 30 SECONDS INTO THE THIRD ROUND AND REMAINS THE WVBA HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!!!!!”-Steve Albert. “What a fight, Steve! What a fight!”-Bobby Czyz. “I can’t believe what I’m seeing!”-Ferdie Pacheco. (Replays) “For the official decision, let’s go to Jimmy Lennon, Jr.”-Steve Albert. “Ladies and gentlemen, referee Mills Lane has called a stop to the bout at 30 seconds of the third round. He is the winner by way of knockout, and STILL the Undisputed, Undefeated WVBA Heavyweight Champion of the World… LITTLE MAC!!!!!-Jimmy Lennon, Jr. “What a victory for Little Mac as he extends his record to 28-0. He’s standing by with Bill Harris.”-Steve Albert.

37:39: “We are ready to go with our main event, and for the official introductions, here’s Jimmy Lennon, Jr.”-Steve Albert. “Ladies and gentlemen, LIVE from The Forum in Inglewood, CA, it’s time for the moment you’ve all been waiting for, the main event of the evening: a 12-round heavyweight war for the WVBA Heavyweight Championship of the World! This bout is brought to you in part by Budweiser, your undisputed, undefeated King of Beers. (After mentioning the commission, doctors and judges) Your referee in charge of this bout is Mills Lane. Alright, fight fans, here we go; two heavyweight warriors are about to get it on, and, NOW, LIVE from The Forum in Inglewood, CA, ladies and gentlemen… IT’S SHOWTIME!!!!!”-Jimmy Lennon, Jr.

The way you just toyed with soda pop and dodge every single shot he threw was insane, dam you got skills bro 😮

One of the reasons I purchased a Nes Mini a few years back. Absolutely love this game.

Thank you for providing such good quality. It sucks when I look up a retro game, and all I find is, like, 480p uploads from 10 years ago.

This is the version I grew up with. I remember just how hard Mr. Dream was for me as a kid

I have never beat king hippo that fast, nice

My brother and i would run around the room during the running cut scenes.

What I love about this game is that it discourages you from just spamming move after move like in practically any other fighting game at the time. You *_have_* to strategize and learn each boss' patterns so you can determine the most efficient way to defeat them. *_This_* is the version of Punch-Out!! that I'm familiar with... Mostly because I have only ever experienced it through Ultimate NES Remix and on the NES Classic.

Punch-Out’s score for the NES was composed by Yukio Kaneoka (who previously did the music and sounds for Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Junior), Akito Nakatsuka (who previously did the music and sounds for Excitebike and Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, which came out the same year as Punch-Out) and Kenji Yamamoto (who later did the music and sounds for Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22), whilst Legendary Wings’ score for the NES was composed by Tamayo Kawamoto and Manami Matsumae.
