Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! Review   Zircron Swift
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out is regarded as one of the best NES games out there, and I'm not sure why. I have often stated before that sports games, especially the golf ones, are just the sports and don't offer anything interesting or new. Sometimes a sports game can capture the simulation of sports, but if that can happen, why not just go out and do it yourself? Regardless, amazingly high praise has been given to this game, and now I'm going to see what this game is all about. This game was first released as a Famicom, simply marked "Punch-Out!!", but it wasn't until Nintendo's founder, Minuoru Arakawa, went to a boxing match that featured Mike Tyson, who was yet to claim championships. He was so impressed with the boxers "Power and skill" that he was inspired to use Mike Tyson as a special guest in a port of "Punch-Out!!" to help with sales. And so Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! was born. And then he went to jail, breaking the contract they made, and the ordinary Punch-Out!! was re-released. Personally right now, I don't see a difference. It's only a change in the final opponent. Why do people hate the re-release so much if they're both practically the same? This is what I'm going to find out.
The game starts out with an 8-bit sprite of Mike Tyson saying he awaits your challenge, and then the title screen comes up. Wait a bit, and some back story will show up. Apparently there is this little guy called "Little Mac", who wants to become the world champion in boxing. Doctor Louis, his black couch, is there to support him every step of the way. Basically your stereotypical American sports movies when a wimp wants to be the best, tries and fails, gets a couch, trains and have a montage, and after so much hard work and determination, he finally comes out victorious, only we just get straight to the building up the ranks part. Cliche to say the least. You start playing the game straight away, and who do you fight to start off your boxing career? The worst that is ranked, Glass Joe. This character has pretty much no strategy, so it's a good place to test out what each button does. There are two types of normal attacks, a normal punch (A and B for left and right) and a face punch (which requires you to hold down the up button + A or B). You can press down for a block, which reduced the damage dealt to you, or you can press left and right to sway out of each attack. If you have a star, you can quickly tab the Start button a few times to unleash an upper-cut special attack. Every attack missed or blocked and every hit you take takes away some of your stamina. When it reaches 0, you can only block and dodge, unable to attack. Make every attack count.
The music starts playing as you start the boxing match. This music was unlike anything I expected it to be. I just expected it to be a buzz of the crowd, that like many other sports games there would be near silence apart from the sound effects and would be an utter bore. But this game blows that all away out of proportion. It's incredible, amazing, and inspirational. Every match this plays, and every time it plays, I feel a sense of determination piquing, and a feeling that if I fail, a comeback will happen, and he will be defeated next time. It just manifests everything related to hard work and determination, and always builds up to a climax when you finally punch him in the face, he topples over and is finally KO'ed. It might be the same track every time, but by golly, it's the best music I've heard of in a sports game, because it's the only music I heard in a sports game. See, this is why you need to have good music in sports games, instead of silence. Music enhances the feel of the game and how you should be feeling in that moment. If you have silence, it's just a dull void of doing something on the screen. While the game play might be superb, without the music the feel of the game goes out of the window and makes it feel much less exciting. Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! did that where others have failed. I can practically feel like if I play this long enough, I can face the mighty "Iron" Mike Tyson, and maybe even beat him. I can feel the build up and immense satisfaction of beating each and everyone of my opponents. I can only imagine what I will feel when I defeat Mike Tyson himself. All this, thanks to the music. Take a note, sports games, because this pointer is as fine as a well sharpened knife.
The graphics I also think are amazing. Sure, the mini peep-talk screens aren't very interesting, but everything else is rather well detailed, especially the training montage cut-scenes where you get the pass key. Not as well as the arcade version, but for an NES game, I think it did superbly. I love the shocking size comparisons when you fight the bigger guys. You are literally the size of their legs, it's frightening. Every boxer has their own personality, and they use that in their style of fighting. Every time you punch or kick them, their expressions are very detailed for an 8-bit game. You can see the pain on their faces, or the shock of being counter-attacked, but the best part is when you knock them out. They all fall to the ground a different way, they stagger, they fly to the ground, they flop down, they turn and try to gain balance, but fail, and even stumble back before fainting. The way they did this was so amazing. The movements are accurate and smooth, and it almost feels like that they are genuinely being knocked out as if they were real people, and not just sprites on the screen following a line of code to make them do an event caused by an action. There is so much variety in this game, so, so much it's hard to think it was made back in the 1980's.
Now, the game play is where it really shines for this game. It requires patience and skill to complete this game. You can't just mash buttons and expect to win easily, as that will run your stamina dry in seconds. It's far more beneficial in this game to be the defender than the offender, and that only adds to the satisfaction of out-witting your opponent, despite their infinity larger chest size, using tactic instead of brute strength to take down your opponent, showing agility instead of recklessness. That's something I admire in a game, a true need of skill to complete it. Of course as the game moves on, more and more opponents will have these features as well, making it more difficult. It's a game that requires timing and trial and error. It would be very hard to do it all the first time round. Also there are moments when an opponent seems too powerful, and you almost feel kinda hopeless when you can't even land a single hit on him. But then you work out his weak spots, attack before he lands a punch on you, his trunks go down and you can punch him in the gut! What a great feeling. Also, you'll fight opponents that have unique properties, such as the Tiger guy, who uses his magic to his advantage. Not sure if that's legal in a boxing match, but makes fora very interesting, and tricky, match.
Overall, I give this game a 9.5/10     This is the sports game. It has everything. Inspiring music, satisfying graphics and reactions, a compelling and interactive game play, a selection of opponents that are just full of character, a sense of intense difficulty that makes you honestly believe that if you try hard enough, you'll come out on top, and most importantly, a main goal you want to achieve. Most sports games have a goal, but it isn't put forward as much or as powerfully as this game does. You're off to fight "Iron" Mike Tyson, champion of the heavy weight champion of boxing in the world. The guys an inspiration to us all at times, and you're off to fight him yourself. That's what drives you. To be able to beat the best and then be the best. That's what the re-release got wrong. Dr. Dream. I don't want to fight this character that has little to no personality. I want to fight Mike Tyson. He might be a sprite on a screen, but at least he's real, and that does something when you defeat him. But Mr. Dream? That takes the whole aspect of the game and chucks it in a blender, mixes together bland and "meh", and then hitting frappé, then chugging it down the sink after realising what was just created. Yes, Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! is an incredible game, absolutely superb in every manner. If you want a challenging game, then this one is no picnic. Just go for "Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!" and not that other one...

Mike Tyson's Punch Out (NES) - JParks34 review   jparks34
Mike Tyson's Punchout (NES) Review
   Mike Tyson's Punch Out, a game released by Nintendo in 1987, is a rare game.  No, it isn't hard to find, you can pick up a copy at any used game store.  It is a rarity in that it is a sports game that will stand the test of time, and stay relevant for as long as video games are around to play.  But it is more than just a sports game, Punch Out is a game that anyone can enjoy.  
   You start out as Little Mac.  You're 4'8, barely weigh 100 pounds, and are only 17 years old.  The fighters you face are going to be equipped with a wide range of abilities, from a simple whirlwind punch to a teleportation style array of punches.  You, however, have the simplest of abilities.  Punch high, left and right, and punch body, left and right.  But it's all you need.  The way you win this game is dodging, counter attacking, and taking every window of opportunity that presents itself to you.
   You first opponent is Glass Joe, coming in with an impressive record of 1-99.  Poor guy.  You think you'd give up at, say, 1-98.  But he keeps going.  You meet many interesting characters along the way, from Spanish playboy Don Flamenco, to drunk Russian Soda Popinski.   
  For example, one of the more memorable characters you'll meet in the game is King Hippo.  He is a powerful puncher that can get you on the ground in just a few hits, but has a pretty glaring weakness.  The bandage on his stomach is a dead giveaway.  When he is going to do his powerful overhand punch, quickly punch high, and then go straight to the body.  Repeat this until he's down, and then that's the match. He won't get up, he never gets up.  Probably couldn't even if he tried. 
   That is how Punch-out is won, finding the weakness, and exploiting it.  With the exception of Glass Joe, you can't just go in guns blazing and expect to knock someone out.  It just won't happen, you will get knocked out every time.  Stick and move Mac, stick and move.
   Your trainer is Doc Louis, but he is pretty much a glorified cheerleader.  He talks in between bouts, but barely anything useful.  You don't gain stats or train or anything like that, what you have is what you get for the whole game.  When you finish one of the circuits (there are 3 circuits, just varying levels of difficulty that progress in a linear fashion), you will see a little cut-scene of Doc Louis riding his bike while Little Mac runs behind, then you are presented with a password so you can come back to this part of the game at a later time.  This comes in handy so the earlier fights don't become too repetitive.  
   Gameplay is always fluid, and leaves it to the skill of the player.  Again, knowing when to dodge and counter attack is invaluable.  If you happen to catch your opponent napping with a surprise punch, you can earn a star.  This can be used to send your opponent a much more powerful super punch, and for some opponents this is an automatic knockdown.  Save them and use them wisely.  If you get hit, you will lose a star.  You can have up to 3 at time, and it is best to use whenever you opponent is stunned, almost always after a successful dodge and counterattack.
   Punchout also features a heart system.  When you punch and get blocked, or when you block, you will lose a heart.  When you run out of hearts you temporarily become unable to throw punches, you can only block and dodge.  This encourages players not to just run into a fight swinging, which will just about always result in being knocked out.  
   The final fight in the game is one of the top achievements you could earn on the NES at the time.  The final fight is against the man himself, Mike Tyson (or Mr. Dream in later versions of the game, after Nintendo's license with Mike Tyson ran out).  He features one punch knockout power.  I don't want to spoil it or provide any tips, just simply want to say good luck.  You'll need it.  Practice makes perfect.
  In conclusion, Mike Tyson's punchout is a game still played by many, over 25 years after its release.  And there seems to be no change in this trend, as players of any age group can find entertainment in this classic.  Whether it is an adult reliving their youth, or a teenager who finally decides to give it a shot after hearing about it, there is something here for anyone.  If you are on the bubble trying to decide if this is worth your time, it is.  Just play it.  
Graphics (9/10): The visuals aren't going to blow you away, but they don't need to.  The punch animations are always smooth, never a second of frame rate issues or choppy animations.  The goofy look on some of the fighters faces are priceless.
Sound (10/10): One of the best sounding games on the NES in this reviewers opinion.  The fighters entrance music are all unique, and pretty entertaining and catchy.  The goofy laughing sounds are kind of weird at first, but you'll grow to love them.  
Addictiveness (10/10): The game is pretty hard to put down.  You pretty much never want to give up, until you finally beat that one opponent that has been giving you trouble.  For instance, nothing is more gratifying then the first time you stop a bald bull rush and send him to the canvas.  Take that baldy.
Difficulty (9/10): Once you get the hang of the fighters in the first two circuits, you can pretty much blow by them with ease.  In the later circuits, not so much.  One wrong move, one mistimed dodge, can result in a knockdown.  Timing is crucial, knowing when to dodge, and when to punch.  Precision is necessary.  And the final fight in one of the toughest finales on the NES.
Thank you for reading.  This review started out simple, and eventually it just took over me and I couldn't stop.  A game like this needs a thorough review, and I have to give credit where credit is due.  The game is amazing and was worth my time that it took to write this.  I have screenshots that I have taken on the main game page, or you can look at the screenshots on my profile located here: [url]http://www.vizzed.com/boards/profile.php?id=410474&profile=game&screenshots=250#screenshots[/url]

Mike Tyson's Punch Out Review   swordo21
One of the classic gems in the Nintendo Entertainment System library, Mike Tyson's Punch Out is an addicting game with a simple goal yet never ceases to capture it's players in their own exciting Rocky-esque fantasies. While the story is rather straight forward and simple, the controls are wonderful, the music perfectly matches, the sound effects good considering the technical limitations of the NES, the characters iconic and memorable, and a steady difficulty curve that raises in steady amounts until the final two fights in which they spike so far through the roof that players have been known to break controllers in rage when faced with the unstoppable Kid Dynamite.
Graphics
The Nintendo's color palette is well used in this game, as the fantastic mixture sets a rather nice tone throughout the entire game. Very rarely is the question asked, "What's that there?" and never is it confused as to where the player can move, though partly for the fact that he's stuck in the center of the ring with only two dodge buttons. Hit boxes are well defined, and every single hit feels solid, and you can see the response on the opponent's face. Seeing as how all the battles are one on one matches, the game can go into great, and often comical, detail depending on where the player lands a hit, and whether or not it was able to get past the opponent's guard or not. There is absolutely no delay between when the button is pressed and when the character on screen reacts, which is extremely welcomed in a game where one must use their reflexes to watch for visual cues in order to get anywhere in the game. On the subject of visual cues, all of the cues are obvious, however the difficulty comes in the player's reaction time. The further one progresses through the ladder, the shorter the time between the cue and the actual attack becomes. This continues up until the point where you're dodging like a mad man to avoid Mike Tyson's flurry of fists.
Sound
Punch Out is often remembered from it's iconic theme which plays during most every match, and when compared to another game on the NES, say Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde which had horrible background music, the main tune to Punch Out!! is a nice catchy little ditty that's memorable and easy to hum along to. It's also not so much that it distracts from the sound effects in game, and when the sounds and the music are put together they all seem to come together in an effect that get's the blood pumping, and really does an excellent job in immersing the player into the game. One impressive thing about the theme song to note as well, is that when translated into an actual instrumental song fits perfectly as one of those wonderful 80's montage songs that movies like Rocky made famous.
Story
You play as a young man named Little Mac from the Bronx, New York, and it's your dream to become the grand champion boxer of the world by defeating Kid Dynamite, Iron Mike Tyson. The story is straightforward, and honestly isn't highlighted to any extent. You first fight in the minor, then major, then world leagues before finally facing Mike Tyson. All the game basically gives the player is, "Hey you're a boxer, now go punch those guys. Don't get hurt too bad." Though that's really all it needs, and the players are happy because it allows them to quickly get back to what matters, the all out slug fest that the matches are.
Depth
This is no Final Fantasy, nor is it any RPG, do not play this game expecting a grand adventure of epic proportions. It's simply one fight after another, and in one sitting the average gamer could beat it in a couple hours easy. However, again that doesn't really detract from the game. It's a fun little game perfect for wasting away a few hours when they're there to waste. 
Difficulty
The difficulty curve is very nice in this game, starting with the appropriately titled, "Glass Joe" until you finally reach the ALSO appropriately named, "Iron Mike Tyson." It starts slow, and adds things one at a time, and the difficulty progresses steadily as the player progresses higher and higher into the ranks until only the quickest of reflexes and sharpest of eyes can survive. Some fights boiling down to waiting for that one exact cue to look for, then pouncing before your split second opening is gone. For good players, it's rewarding to get in a good combo on their foes, and the game fairly punishes those too slow until they can see their mistakes and work to correct them. It all culminates with the fight against Tyson, in which you are more than certain to die a few times before actually learning his pattern and how to dodge it.
Summary
Mike Tyson's Punch Out is a gem in the NES library for a reason. The music, sounds, graphics, and gameplay get the player immersed within their own imaginations, as many great games did back on the NES. It needs what it has, and has what it needs. With a simple objective, extremely tight and responsive controls, and just an overall addictiveness to the game that could have easily made it rich in the arcades, Mike Tyson's Punch Out stands head and shoulders above the worst pits of the NES depths, and in terms of how fun it is to play, it stands right next to such games as Mario, Zelda, Mega Man, and Metroid.

Protect your face and your ears at all times.   Azul Fria
During the first 5 years of his career, Mike Tyson was a beast in the ring until he was momentarily tamed by James Buster Douglas who would later get his on game to help market the Genesis does what Nintendon't campaign. In 1987, Nintendo decided to give Iron Mike Tyson his own boxing based on an already released game though it was only in Japan for a few months. In fact, the Japan release at the time was a special gold cartridge given to lucky winners and Super Macho Man was the final boss for that game. Mike Tyson was added later for the US release and soon the real Japanese release.
[yellow]Story[/color]
Little Mac is a scrawny little 17-year-old from Bronx, New York who is looking to become a boxer but no one wants to train him thinking he'll get the tar beat out of him every fight he gets. He was just about to give up when a man named Jerome "Doc" Lewis came along and took Little Mac under his wing and the two became best friends. He trains him to tiptop shape and soon he gets his first fight against a man whom all other trainers assumed that Little Mac will end up like. His name is Glass Joe with a measly 1W-99L record. Whoever this 1 win was against, must have taken a dive. Even if Mac wins, he still may end up like Glass Joe because the latter did manage to win 1 win and never again as did his protoge Gabby Jay whom got his only win against him. Could Mac meet the same fate? That's up to you to determine. Mac's fate and reputation depends on your skills or lack of them.

[yellow]Controls[/color] - 9
The Controls are very sensitive. Some opponents will fall for the tap up strategy called "gutter punches" where normally you have the control pad left alone to have the opponent blocking  low when not attacking. If you hold up on the control pad, they will block high. If you tap up, you'll fool the opponent into blocking high and some opponents won't be able to recover in time to guard against a body shot that sometimes result in a free star and possibly other weaknesses.
 
The physics for punching are a little awkward but make sense in real life. You can't rapid punch your opponent even though it looks like you can but lets just say you decide to do a Tool Assisted Run and slowed the throttle down heavily. You'll notice that you that you cannot throw another punch until your fist comes back to it's original frame, I'm noting this because against Glass Joe, you need 20 punches total in order to get the first star with the necessary last punch being a non-counter punch. However, chances are he'll be knocked out with one punch. But, here is the interesting challenge. Try getting 20 unanswered blows before he taunts to get a star then knock him out with the star punch for good measure. Who knew that method would be used on the Wii? Chances are that you did it on the Wii first. 
 
Another case of sensitivity is the fact that you can do a quick dodge by pressing the opposite direction the moment you dodge in a certain direction to get the jump on the opponent faster after a dodged punch faster. Avoid using that method on some opponents attacks like Super Macho Man's Multiple Clotheslines and Sandman's Triple Uppercut, just let it flow. Ducking is just for showing off as unlike the other Punch Out games, ducking is not even required in this game. All attacks can be dodged or blocked.
 
One thing I should probably warn you about is that if you get knocked down too many times without being TKO'd. The game has been programmed to let you stay down for the 10 count no matter how many times or how hard you try to get back up. This is so you won't think that the controls are not responding.

[yellow]Graphics[/color] -  9.5
MTPO has some top of the line graphics. You get to see a lot of faces in the crowd. Even a cameraman whom assists you in your first fight against Bald Bull. When he does his Bull Charge, the camerman will snap a photo before it is time to punch him in the gut. Each circuit has it's own color representation. Blue for Minor, Green for Major, and Turquoise for World Circuit to help you keep track of which circuit you are on as 3 of your opponents you will fight twice (Piston Honda, Bald Bull, and Don Flamenco). The best use of graphics is when you get to Mike Tyson. Nintendo did a good job of making the character look like him in every aspect and captured his power too but that's another part to review. The one thing I dislike is the cameltoe sported by Soda Popinski and Super Macho Man considering they are palette swaps. Matter of fact, King Hippo is the only boxer who is not a palette swap. Even Mike Tyson was palette swapped with Piston Honda. 

[yellow]Music/Sound[/color] - 10
The music and sounds really grow on you. Here's a fun fact though, some of the boxers have introduction themes that you've probably heard in real-life before like Glass Joe has the French National Anthem. Von Kaiser, Great Tiger, and Super Macho Man have Kill the Wabbit. Piston Honda has Sakura. Don Flamenco has Carmen. Soda Popinski has Yo Heave Ho (can't remember the actual song name).
The main theme itself is a rendition of Gillette Cavalcade of Sports which probably explains whey they didn't use that in the Wii version as they did with changing Honda's name to Hondo to avoid legal issues which during the 1980s not many companies worried about and got away with it.
 
Sounds can also play a role in defensive message. Some distinct sounds include the Magic Rush where if you are blind or just not looking at the screen, you can still win by knowing what to listen for. You got to block 5 consecutive punches and Great Tiger gets dizzy from it. One punch will send him to the canvas afterwards. You'll know a punch was coming because of the sound of grenade being tossed telling you to block it. The Multiple Clothesline from SMM works like that too. Listen for the end of the BOING to dodge the next punch. 

[yellow]Gameplay[/color] - 10
The game gets difficult as you progress to the game. It starts from very easy to downright ridiculous towards the end as the opponents start to deal more damage to you. 
 
Glass Joe goes down in as little as 1 punch if you time it right but if you're timing is off when you knock him down, he'll get up at 1 and anytime an opponent gets up at 1, an uppercut will knock them back down. He is so weak that you can beat him with an arm tied behind your back but only on the 1 punch KO. I do admire his stamina though. He can take up to 5 knockdowns before he's KO'd. Even most opponents later on don't survive that many knockdowns.
 
Von Kaiser though being the second opponent is even easier than Glass Joe, an uppercut while he's stunned and he gets scared and hits the canvas upon impact.
 
Piston Honda 1 provides the first actual challenge but you can take the fight to him as he's the first opponent where you can utilize the
gutter punches. Start the fight with you hands down and tap up to make him raise his gloves. Then start punching him in the gut for a star each hit up to 4 times though you only get  to use up to 3 stars. When he jumps back, he will use his Honda Rush which will keep going until he knocks you down or until you defend up to 4 punches. If you manage to punch him before he starts his Rush then you will knock him down on impact. 
Because this is a Championship match, you can't win by decision.
 
Don Flamenco 1 is a total pushover. He will just taunt you until you make him block a punch and he'll respond with a Flamenco Punch (Uppercut). Dodge it and respond with a left-right-left-right-etc. combo and it'll continue till he falls. He'll get up and throw another Flamenco Punch. Dodge, rinse, and repeat and he'll stay down for the 10 count if the second knockdown came early enough. If you are good with timing, you can get a star punch by timing a delayed punch after dodging the Flamenco Punch. An uppercut knocks him to the canvas. When he gets up, hit him in the gut and dodge the next attack and uppercut him again to finish him off.
 
King Hippo is the only introduction theme that doesn't seem to have been derived from anywhere I know off. The only original theme I would say at this point. King Hippo can only be hit when his mouth is open. Wait for him to open his mouth and punch him and hit in the head and he'll expose his weak point which is his belly. Hit him 8 times each time. You only need to knock him down once to win. Dude is so fat, he can't get off of his carcass once he hits the floor. The only indication that he attempts to get up is that Mario sometimes pauses at 9 before counting to 10. If you time a punch just as he opens his mouth you can get a 9 punch belly combo in.
 
Great Tiger is the first opponent out of two that can't be KO'd (by hook and by crook, Tyson can KO'd). However, he has a flaw in his style that'll get him TKO'd in under a minute. Just remember that as long as you knock him down in less than a minute, he will always get up at the count of 1 and you know what happens there. The most devastating move he has is the Magic Rush which I explained earlier. Block 5 punches and hit him in the face and he goes flying. I'll be nice and give you the under a minute strategy. At the start, hit towards his head to make him block the high punch and he'll respond with a left jab. Time a delayed jab for a star. Do this three times and unleash three uppercuts on him. Get at least a couple more stars and knock him down before the 1:00 mark hits then he'll get up at 1. Uppercut him to send down again and make him get up again at 1 then finish him off. Even if you are short on stars by the time the 1:00 mark approaches, make sure the second knockdown happens before 1:00 and you can take your time getting a star once it passes since he rose at 1 and the next uppercut defeats him by TKO.
 
Bald Bull 1 is tough as nails but he too has a fatal flaw. Like Great Tiger he can't be KO'd but the fatal flaw is dictated by the number of hooks that he throws in a row. When he starts throwing them. If he throws two in succession, he'll throw rolling jabs. If he does three hooks in succession, he will start doing numerous uppercuts. He's the first opponent to regularly dodge uppercuts when you attempt to him with them when he is stunned. Von Kaiser actually dodges them too but he never lasts that long for you to see that. Ironically, he tend to get hit with them when he is not stunned because he is usually preparing a hook. His Bull Charge is nothing to be messed with. One punch from it and you go down. On the flipside, the same thing will happen if you counter it successfully and he hit floor. He'll keep attempting this Bull Charge till the round ends or one of you gets knocked down. Because this is a Championship match, you can't win by decision.
 
Piston Honda 2 sees Honda step his game up. He comes out with faster jabs and fake uppercut. Like Glass Joe, he has a major fatal flaw that will get him KO'd with 1 punch if timed right and he always attempts his fateful move around the 1:00 or 2:00 mark each round. If he timed right, he goes down and stays down. If not timed right, he'll yield a star and do the Hondo Rush anyway.
 
Soda Popinski got his name because his arcade counterpart was not to kid friendly with the name Vodka Drunkenski. He fights with devastating uppercuts and quick hooks and surprise jabs. He fights in a southpaw stance. This guy make take a lot of damage initially but in the first round he becomes another fatal flaw victim. Hold down to block and usually during an uppercut attempt, he'll freeze and this will allow you to hit him in the gut. This is his downfall as an uppercut will knock him down from this point. The first 2 uppercuts he'll give you for free when he is stunned but he'll dodge them from the 3rd uppercut on when he's stunned. To get the final uppercut in, do the uppercut block trick twice in a row and throw an uppercut. You'll nail him when he goes for a hook or a jab. The jab might still get you if you don't do it quick enough and you trade hits.
 
Bald Bull 2 learned some new tricks. It's impossible to knock him down with a normal punch as he will regain his health. Only a star punch or a countered Bull Charge will knock him down. Speaking of Bull Charge, now he will shorten the charge if he misses the first one then switch back and forth between regular and short. He also gets up at 9 all the time.
 
Don Flamenco 2 sees Don add jabs to his repretoire and his hooks which he rarely used in the first fight are lightning quick. There is a small pattern at the start. He'll use 3 jabs and then hook and repeat the process for a minute and a half then start taunting for the rest of the round which you must hit at him to make him respond with a Flamenco Punch. Unlike the first fight, it may take more that one blocked punch to provoke him. When you are out of hearts, he'll use those super quick jabs so beware of those.
 
Mr. Sandman is the hardest opponent next to Tyson. He'll start with Rolling Jabs and become another fatal flaw victim courtesy of the Nightmare Punches on your part. Throw a jab to make him dodge and respond with a hook. Hit him in the face, him in the gut once or twice then delay the last punch when you see him move oh so slightly to do more damage on the final punch because it's like hitting him with a normal punch. His most dangerous move can also be his downfall if you avoid it completely. The move is the Nightmare Rush which consists of 3 quick uppercuts. You know it's coming if he stops dodging you punches. The window of opportunity to dodge is minimal but doing so will let you hit him in the face then hit him with up to 15 body shots if doesn't hit the floor yet. You can't win this fight by decision no matter how much tar you knocked out of him.
 
Super Macho Man is ready to release the bogus on you. It's weird that he is 23 but has gray hair but his in game sprite is black due to limitations. Gutters are his biggest enemy here. He has quick hooks and uppercuts but the moves to worry about are the clothesline and the Multi-clothesline. The former is unpredictable as to when he unleashes it but he'll stand still before he does it and allow for lots of gutter punches. The latter he'll only use after he gets up from a knockdown and 1 hit will knock you down. He does from 2-12 maybe more spins with it and the most hated part about it is that the clock will stop moving while he is doing it so you can't even be saved by the bell. 
Because this is a Championship match, you can't win by decision. On the gold JP release, he's the last boss.
 
Kid Dynamite Mike Tyson is the last boss of the game. He is super brutal. The biggest challenge is to survive the first minute and a half of the first round which he will throw uppercuts that knockdown on impact. However, if you block one at full power, you'll survive but be without any health. Once you survive, he can't throw no 1-hit knockdown uppercuts for the rest of the fight and will do jabs for the rest of the round. Tyson starts to weaken but stays tough through the rest of the  fight. He has a Tyson Rush similar to the Honda rush except he'll blink his eyes before attacking. Hit him at the right time and he goes down otherwise he'll yield a star. If you time things right, you can TKO him in 1 round. Better timing of punches will result in a 3rd round KO. He won't be having any ears for breakfast anytime soon.
 
Whew! I've said a mouthful haven't I? I'm sorry but I just a lot of good things to say about this game.

[yellow]Overall[/color]
This is one of NES best games ever and it's worth playing. You might also recognize it as just plain Punch-Out with Mike Tyson replaced by Mr. Dream which is a white-man version of him but strategy remains all the same. This game will definitely a game that will keep you on your toes as you try to figure the puzzle to this game but it is well worth the time and trouble.

The Good Punchout...Mike Tyson's Punchout   pacman1755
Alright, time for another NES review by yours truely, now what game should I pick? How about the good punchout known as Mike Tyson's Punchout!! Not that dumb Mr. Dream Punchout, nope, this is the more famous Punchout, time to get to the reviewing.
DIFFICULTY: 7
This game has one of the tougher challenges, especially deep into the later worlds, this game has the cheap moments, especially the fighting pattern of some fighters. Good thing there is a password for some games, but its a somewhat long password, so if your going to cheat and use the passwords, I would write it down before I start typing it in. Anyways, the first world is super easy, you shouldn't have any trouble with the first 2 fighters or even 3 fighters, world 2 gets slightly tougher and tougher and tougher, and world 3 is very hard, but you haven't seen anything yet. Mike Tyson is very tough, I have heard that he can knock you out with one punch for crying out loud! Practice makes perfect I say and study his attack patterns. You can beat him.
DEPTH: 5
You should beat the game in one sitting if you played it many times, there is only 4 somewhat short worlds, with at least 3 to 5 enemies to fight. No big worlds in this game, here is the list of enemies in each world.
WORLD 1: Glass Joe
Von Kaiser
Piston Honda (champion)
WORLD 2: Don Flamenco
King Hippo
Great Tiger
Bald Bull (champion)
WORLD 3: Piston Honda (2)
Soda Popinski
Bald Bull (2)
Don Flamenco (2)
Mr. Sandman
Super Macho Man (champion)
WORLD 4: Mike Tyson (Dream Fight)
This is the list of every fighter in every world, looks intimitation but it isn't anything to be scared of, it should be quick. At least to me its quick :P For those who haven't played this game, it should be beat in a couple of sittings.
STORY: 1
There is very VERY little story being told in this game, but according to a Punchout fanpage this is what the story is: "Little Mac is only 17 years old and lives in the South Bronx. He was nothing but a street fighter but his destiny changed when he met Doc Louis. Doc was a "heavy-puncher" in the heavyweight division, but began drinking and ended up in poverty. One day he saw Mac's fighting spirit and decided to make him a boxer. This was the start of their new life. Mac quit the streets, Doc gave up drinking and together they began their path to the world championship." That is the story, not brief but it is not told in the game whatsoever. So, this is an opinion on what the backstory is, so its unofficial.
ADDICTIVENESS: 7
You can be very addicted to this game, it is very fun to beat those enemies silly with your star punches and the ways you can knock them down and the ways you can earn stars as well, you will find yourself playing for hours to try to defeat Mike Tyson/Mr. Dream. Trust me, you will find that out very VERY soon once you play this.
SOUND: 7
Nothing too special about the sound FX in this game, its your standard NES sound effect, it doesn't seem too memerable, but the most credit goes to the theme music to this game, it doesn't change in the game, but you will not get it out of your head after playing this, that I will garantee you that. The fighting music, the title music, and the running music when you are traveling between levels with Doc on the bike and Mac running with him. That is retro games at its finest.
GRAPHICS: 6
There is nothing special about the graphics on this game, to be honest, its your standard NES game, with its NES sound FX and its attempts to be "real life" like its flashing of the crowd when a round is over, or even when you beat an enemy. Nothing special, I would say its your standard NES game graphics. Nothing too shabby, I've seen worse.
OVERALL: 9
Overall this game is one of the true classics for the NES, if you are the old school gamer or a fan of fighting games, you go over to the RGR and play this game NOW.
Thanks for reading and happy gaming! :)

Mike Tyson's Punch Out!!   LegolasJJH
Mike Tyson's Punch Out!! could be considered the fighting game that started them all. For a game made so long ago and so basic its almost kind of surprising how fun it is to play. The game was a huge hit when it was released back in 1987 during the time Mike Tyson was striking fear into the Heavyweight division of boxing. I don't think it is any surprise that this game was one of the best selling games on the NES because Mike Tyson was a household name back in 1987, and even to this day , everyone knows who Mike Tyson is.
You are Little Mac and you are ranked #3 in the minor's circuit as you begin your climb to the top of the world of boxing. Your road to fight the Champion himself Iron Mike Tyson will not be easy. You only have your Left and Right hands as your weapons (A and B buttons correspondingly). Just pushing A or B will throw a body shot with the left or right hand, while holding up then  A or B will throw punches to the face. You can also hold down your punches instead of tapping them to throw a power shot and also tap your punch buttons quickly to throw a flurry. The only other move at your disposal is dodging with the left right and down directional buttons.
GRAPHICS: 9
The graphics are clear and colorful and look good. Each of your opponents has his own style and are animated uniquely and also pretty funny. You might even recognize a guest appearance as the referee of your fights!
SOUND: 8
The music of the game doesn't do anything for me to really stand out especially. But some of the sound effects can be funny such as when you score a knockdown or knockout. Since NES games did not have the ability to have actual voice acting the sound of some of the games characters talking is an iconic part of the game.
ADDICTIVENESS: 8
If you are a fan of fighting games this game is highly addicting. The game takes a little while to understand the styles and weaknesses of each of your opponents but you will find yourself replaying this game until you can finally beat it. Once you beat the game you will still come back for more because you just can't get enough of knocking the snot out of your opponents. The game also gives Vizzed users the opportunity to compete for high score in the RGR.
STORY: 7
Well the story is fairly simple, you want to become the World Champion Boxer! This is not a game that is played for it's story so if that is what you are looking for you might want to check out some RPG's on the NES.
DEPTH: 8
The game contains 14 opponents in total for you to fight, which may not seem like that many, but once you start getting into the Major's Circuit you will quickly realize even reaching Mike Tyson is quite a challenge. For new players it will take quite a few trys before you would ever get close to Mike Tyson and that is if you are good. The ability to compete for highscore always raises the depth score for me because it just adds that competitive fun to the game.
DIFFICULTY: 9
Like most games on the NES, this is a tough one. I'm the type of person who just wants to get as far as I can in a game the very first time I play it. Well lets just say, on my very first time I never reached Mike Tyson and I did get somewhat frustrated and quit. It's probably not a game you will beat without practicing at it for a little while which is why I recommend playing this game in small sessions so it doesn't become frustrating constantly getting TKOed!
OVERALL: 9
Overall this game is a must play to any hardcore gamer. Anyone that considers themselves a fan of retro games or the NES must play this game! It is a game that played a role in the history of video games and shaped how fighting games would be played for generations to come.

A classic from the good old nes days   SuperCrash64

 Punch out what a game really a classic it was released in 1987 . There is two versions of punch out one that has Mr dream and one that has mike Tyson . This is the mike Tyson version I am reviewing . 

GRAPHICS 

The graphics are nicely done with great colors ,Although they seem a little washed out still its pretty nice 2d stylish and sharp .You can even see Mario as the official or referee . You can often notice the colors are washed out when your fighting some one like Glass Joe ,Were his skin color is little more red .Still not to shabby for a great Nintendo Nes title . So graphics for Punch out are top notch  , I give it a 9,  The color,s are  little washed out but during the entire game its not too noticeable ,  

Sound

the sound is great for the nes while sound effects manly happen when you punch some body or ,you knock them out it makes a crazy sound effect like . ow ow ow there is a great variety of sound effects in this game . The main reason I think its great is the well done soundtrack . From the beginning Intro I can tell you that the intro music is a remake of the original punch out arcade intro theme.  the main them just kills the game with great percussion sounds it  . While there is only one theme for the match it keeps the game refreshing.  Sound gets a 10 . Really  Nintendo (R) and 3d did a really nice job  making the music for the game . 

Addictiveness

If anyone ask s me if  I would play any boxing game it would be punch out . Punch out In My opinion is great for the neat characters music and  game play. Punch out is  just one of those games .I would wanna play all night until the sun comes up . Anyways addictiveness gets a 10 Its just a really fun game . 

Story . Your a character named little Mac  with a trainer who loves chocolate by the name of Doc Louis , Your mainly supposed to beat everyone get all championships and defeat Mike Tyson . This is one the  characters dream stories  that come true. Story,wise  it fits very well with the game,  Story gets a 10

Depth 

Punch out has a lot of neat and fan tat sic characters that appeared in other games . For example Bald Bull appeared in Arm Wrestling as Mask X . Punch out also offers neat game play and a lot of People. That You need to beat in order to get to the championship. Depth gets a 10 just a lot to do in this game . Oh yeah if you fail 3 times you ill get game over just letting you know that . 

Difficulty this game will take some time to master I have not even gotten through the great tiger . That's what I remember his name was ,  The controls rather work perfectly. difficulty gets a 7 will take some time to master 

Overall This is a classic nes game I really like ,I hope there are more Punch out games to come in the future . because the series is just great.final ratings .9,4 great game i give it a B 

more reviews coming soon

"Keep it clean! Now let's come out boxing!"   TheDeadpoolOwns
Man, it's been forever since I did a review, so let's take a look at my favorite NES game of all time, Punch-Out!! Specifically the one featuring Kid Dynamite himself, Mike Tyson! Albeit he doesn't bite your ear off, so I suppose that's a weak point right away...
Graphics: In my opinion, Punch-Out had the best graphics on the NES simply because they're so detailed, and even when there's just two frames, it looks outstanding! The graphics get a 10 for pushing the NES to its limits.
Sound: This is the big one, as I love the music in this game more than most music in any other game, and I have some really big favorites. The title theme itself gets you pumped, and it just gets better from there! The fight theme brings a lot of hype into the game, and really gets you into the fighting spirit, and the Knocked Down theme really displays a sense of urgency. And of course, no Punch-Out game would be complete without an appearance from the infamous Jogging scene! The Jogging Scene was famous for two reasons: It looked advanced for its time, and the music. The music was amazing, and it really got you pumped. I mean, how can you hate the song that rocked gamers at the time, and is still remembered today, being Little Mac's main theme in the new Super Smash Bros! Combine all these songs together, and you get one of the most amazing soundtracks any game offered! (And the Wii version made it better!) The sound gets a 10, without a doubt.
Addictiveness: Once you get into this game, it's very hard to get out of it. It gives you a great experience that you always come back to, just to see how fast you can knock down the chumps of the W.V.B.A! 9 out of 10 for bringing an amazing challenge to the audience!
Story: Now, the story of this game is really simple, but still had an impact on players. Now, Doc Louis was a former WVBA champion, but went into retirement after a long career. He then noticed new boxer Little Mac, and his determination to get to the top, and decided to coach the kid to become the new champion, and even take down Mike Tyson! From there, Doc and Mac became an unstoppable team, ready to fight! The story gets an 8, as it was simple, yet inspiring.
Depth: This game has a surprising amount of depth to it, even though it's a very simple concept. You will have to take a lot of time to take down the tougher boxers, so I'd say it takes a while to beat. 8 out of 10.
Difficulty: Ever heard of "NES Hard" or "Nintendo'd"? This game is one of the greatest examples of these phrases. The early boxers are ridiculously easy, such as Glass Joe and Von Kaiser. However, once you get to Great Tiger, you will have to try and fight to survive, and it will take a while. 7 out of 10.
Overall: I give this game a 10 out of 10, just due to how it revolutionized the gaming world at the time, and how it's still a great playable experience to this day. Now, play some Punch-Out, and remember to come out boxing!

One of the best NES games ever   Drweegee64
Story: Not much of a story, but..... You play as Little Mac, who is training to become the champion of the WVBA's minor, major and world circuits and to fight against boxing legend, Mike Tyson. Doc Louis, your trainer, trains you between each circuit to prepare you for the next.Gameplay: Both you and your opponent have a life bar, you have to learn your oppenents movements and punch them when they are vurlnarable. You cannot just punch them and get a hit since most hits will be blocked. Once the opponent has been knocked down, Mario will come in and count, obviusly if he reaches 10 then you win. Or if you knock your opponent down 3 times in the same round, it is a TKO and you win. You can also win by decision. Some fighters cannot lose by decision. Also, if you punch fighters at certain times, you can get a star, you can use it by pressing start for a powerful uppercut which can be dodged though. If you get hit while you have a star, you will lose one. Lastly, you have a heart count, the hearts deplete when your punches are blocked, when you block punches or when you are hit. When all hearts are gone, you will get tired and be unable to punch. So keep pressing buttons and dodge attacks to get your hearts back.Controls: Left is to dodge left, right is to dodge right, B is to punch left, A is to punch right (hopefully didn't get them mixed up). Holding up while pressing A or B will punch the opponents head. Down is to block some punches. Start is to use a star uppercut if you have a star. That is about it. Extremely easy to control so it is your fault if you lose, which is good.Graphics: Well, you can't expect much from graphics on the NES but the different boxers look pretty good to me, graphics don't really bother me that much to be honest.Sound: There isn't much music really, but the fight music is fantastic and the other tracks in the game are great. The sound effects also suit what you are doing, from punching to being knocked down.Addictiveness: This game is quite addictive and is fun to play through over and over again. Beating your oppenents is very satisifying.Depth: It is extremely simple really, but that doesn't matter when the gameplay is so good.Difficulty: The first 2 fighters,Glass Joe and Von Kaiser are pathetic. Piston Honda may give you trouble the first time you face him. The game gets extremely hard the further you get through the game. The game is easier when you know how to beat the fighters and you know their patterns, but the world circuit is very very hard and Mike Tyson himself, I have never beaten.Overall: A classic, and even if you don't like boxing or boxing games that are realistic, you might just like this brilliant, fun game. I recommend trying it out. Though it is a bit faster than it is meant to be on a emulater.

Mike T.'s Punch Out Review   Homerun2001
What can I say about this game? Let's see......
GRAPHICS: The graphics were very, how you say, interesting. I mean when the crowd cheers after you win, they go all rainbow and start flashing. I also liked it when you jogged across the water and it just seemed all too good for a NES game.
SOUND: The music was very memorable especially the music after you win a match and the battle music. The crowd was trying to sound realistic, and it did, but in a chip-tune kind of way. And if Bald Bull wins, it just creeped me out but the first time it made me laugh.
ADDICTIVENESS: This game was very addicting. In a sense that if it got hard and you lost, you just wanted to keep on playing to beat that guy.
Especially the fight against Mike Tyson.
STORY: There isn't that much story but it basically just meant that a kid from New York wanted to become the world champion so he decided to take all of the WVBA (World Video Boxing Association) titles. And at the very top is the iron champion himself, Kid Dynamite, Mike Tyson.
DEPTH: This game is very long and luckily, there are stage codes in case you shut the game off. There is even another world circuit.
DIFFICULTY: This game is very hard. As the game progresses, it gets harder and harder and harder until the final boss has one hit KO punches.
OVERALL: Overall, this game is a legend and not much people played or remembered it. I just hope that they make another Punch Out game. Maybe for the Wii U or 3Ds.
I hope you enjoyed reading this review and hope you enjoy the game! Just remember that in the version with Mr. Dream, that he is just Mike Tyson, just with a bigger record.

Mike Tyson is waiting for your Challenge!   Hyperstar96
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! is one of the most memorable NES games there has ever been. It's just one of those classics that most gamers know. It's an amazing game full of great gameplay and music, and is also quite addictive as well.
Story: The game doesn't have much of a story: you're Little Mac: 17 year-old boxer from the Bronx going for the title of Champion in the World Video Boxing Association. You'll have to go through the Minor, Major, and World Circuits before fighting Mike Tyson himself. But unlike most NES games, story isn't very important (which is why this game gets no story rating).
Graphics: The graphics are on par for NES standards, but there's a lot of moving around (obviously, since it's a boxing game), and the depth is just right. And look who the referee is... it's Mario! You can now add "referee" to Mario's list of many occupations. What doesn't he do?
Sound: Like most NES games, this doesn't have much music. Each character has their own theme that plays for a few seconds before fighting them. The same music (not the intro; something different) plays during every fight, but it's an excellent song that you'll easily have stuck in your head... in the good way! There's also a song that plays during the cut scene that follows each circuit, the music that plays after winning a match, and the music that plays after winning a circuit.
Gameplay: Here's what is arguably the most important part of any game: the gameplay. The controls are basic and work great: left punch/uppercut, right punch/uppercut, block, and Star Punch. The moves are very easy to pull off, each requiring only the press of a button and holding up for the uppercuts. Do a left punch with B (hold up for uppercut), right punch with A (hold up for uppercut), hold down to block, and press select to hit your enemy with a powerful Star Punch... but only if you have a star, which you get from hitting the enemy at the right time. Hit the opposing fighter at certain times and you'll stun him, allowing you to get many punches in before he becomes un-stunned.
There are 13 different fighters, each with unique moves and strategies. Most fighters will take several attempts to beat, since you need to practice and memorize their moves. Because of this, there is a lot of depth that will last you a while. Not to mention there's also a second mode with harder versions of each of the 13 fighters! My only complaint is that the game isn't very addictive. Fun, but not as addictive as some other NES games.
Outside of saves states, there is no way to save, but you do get a password after each circuit, and before each of the two last fights. Thankfully, the passwords aren't very long, each one consisting of only ten numbers.
Conclusion: Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! is an excellent game and a must-play for almost any gamer. This game gets a 9.3/10

Mike Tysons Punch Out!!!!   ditao1
This game is amazing, the wii version stays very true to this version. From the easy Glass Joe to the medium people, to Mike Tyson, Soda Popinski, and Super macho Man??? Those three just made this game a 9 in difficulty for me. I have to say, the depth in the game is amazing. The personality of each character is expressed using 8-bit graphics so expertly for the time. The story is very shallow though. Difficulty always affects my feelings about how addictive a game is, so yeah. The one song during the whole game is just addicting. However it DOES NOT RIVAL MEGAMAN BY MUCH!!!!!!! That's all I have to say.

Punch this reveiw   Hideki
One of the classic games of Nintendo, and a remake on the Wii, which was kind decpecionante because it was not Mike Tyson, but it was much better graphics, sounds, a difficulty, history, and exerxícios for your hands = P
But we're talking about Punch Out, which was a phenomenon of Nintendo, to me is the best sports game for Nintendo, but esiste some problems in this game like: The code had to be so long? The story is confusing, think out of nowhere you think, I will become the best boxer in the world, and I derretor Mike Tyson, but what the hell were they thinking?? At least they could faser a story like this: A famous boxer (called Litle Mac), was champion boxer, but Mike Tyson finished him, and he lost carrera carrera and decided to start from the beginning, and now is your ves Lilt Mac to help defeat Mike Tyson, a story like this would be good (think a little) but like any fighting game dis over history, f*** THIS, I just want to beat all the guys.

 why did i take you for granted? now i cant play you.. im sorry mac...im sorry mike..
ARedLetterDay 07-29-16 - 10:26 PM
 To be fair, not everybody either grew up with the game in one way or another or ever cared to play it, so it's really not too surprising.
SuperCrash64 07-29-16 - 09:27 PM
 I saw teen's react to this and the Teenagers who played this game couldn't get pass glass joe.. #Embarassing
Droog 02-12-16 - 07:47 PM
 This has one of the hardest final bosses I've ever faced. Still a lot of fun to play.

 @HappylandMan All you have to do is press the key you set "Start" to, which should be Enter by default

pandamaster10 06-24-14 - 10:20 AM
 I am a kid who grew up with modern games. But I play old games most of the time. This game i've always wanted to play and want a game! Nintendo was brilliant for making Mario the refer! The controls are smooth and its fun! I'd rate this a 4 out of 5! :D
dylanretro125 05-11-14 - 08:02 AM
