Mike Tyson's Punch Out!!

**Nturtle** · 10-06-2003, 05:27 PM

Or just "Punch Out", depends when you got it...

So who remembers this game?! Its an all time classic for me. Bring back great memories of beating all the characters one by one and finally Iron Mike in a overtime decision after only 40 million some tries.

Great game.

Yeah I was playing it on Animal Crossing not too long ago. Amazing game. Very hard too. I loved the sensation I used to get when I'd find the weakness of one of the fighters! With some cases it took forever and if your timing wasn't just right you could be done for!

*Voltron* · 10-06-2003, 06:03 PM

Jesus, man. That thing is a relic!

*That Matt Guy* · 10-06-2003, 06:10 PM

I could never get any farther than Soda Popinski.

*jeff the cheff* · 10-06-2003, 06:12 PM

what system?

*Mr. Snackpants* · 10-06-2003, 06:18 PM

Its gotta be one of the best games EVER!!!!! Right up there with TMNT, imo. I can still remember the first time I beat it, it was so exciting. That game just quit working a couple months ago. I gotta get a new one. Wasnt he guys name mac or lil mac? dang I gotta get that game again!!!Played it on Animal Crossing?

*jeff the cheff* · 10-06-2003, 06:54 PM

Little Mac.

I'm glad I'm not he only one who remembers it!!!

The hardest characters were probably King Hippo (at least before you figure him out

), Bald Bull, Soda Popinski (takes awhile to adjust ot his weird timing), Mr.Sandman, Super Macho Man and Mike Tyson, of course.

Peanut · 10-06-2003, 07:44 PM

Oh god! Bald Bull! One hit KO is nothing but trouble! Yeah I played it only Animal Crossing (for the Gamecube) you can get a bunch of old NES games on it. It has Punch-Out among others like Super Mario Bros., Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong 1-3 and Jr. You know. All Nintendo made classics.

*Voltron* · 10-06-2003, 08:10 PM

Zelda...That's the game that taught me how to swear!

F***ING TEKTITES!

Talk about your classics. Back in the day when being the coolest kid on the playground meant you knew how to beat Great Tiger.

I alternately loved/hated this game as a kid... hated it because some of it was SO damn hard, and loved it because it was even more FUN than it was difficult. Figuring out the techniques to finally beat the opponent you've been stuck on forever was a huge accomlishment. I didn't finally beat Tyson until my Freshman year of high school, and I've probably only beaten the game 5 times in my life.

Damn I miss the days of classic gaming. Today's games are good and some are really great but it just doesn't feel the same.

**Karpo_007** · 10-07-2003, 03:04 AM

Loved the game as a kid, though I was never able to beat Mr. Sandman...

*damnhooligan* · 10-07-2003, 04:37 AM

I never got into the game as a kid (It didn't hold much appeal for the average little girl, I'm afraid), but a good friend of mine reintroduced me to Punch Out during my freshman year at college.

I sucked to no end at it, but nevertheless, great game.

*Deathknight* · 10-07-2003, 08:20 AM

Furthest I ever got was Mike Tyson, I swear he is impossible. Only time I beat him was with Game Genie using Invincible, punches do more damage, and never lose hearts. Even then it took me until round 3 2:57. Without Game Genie I think I only lasted until round 2 once. All other times it would be a TKO, he's so fast!

**Nturtle** · 10-07-2003, 02:36 PM

Mike tyson is simply ridiculous, it took me months to beat him

It always bugged me how they bring back Don Flaminco in the last circuit, he was a lousy character, they should of had Von Kaiser or something new.

Fugitoid Jones · 10-07-2003, 09:48 PM

One of if not my most favorite games of all time! I still can't beat it, and I've spent many a hour trying to beat it, but I shall prevail over that fiend Mr. Dream(I don't have the Tyson version, but I'm going to pick it up someday). Playing it on Gamecube must be fine and all, but it really brings back those good old days while playing it on the original system. ~kisses his original system right on the loading flap~

**azure turtle** · 10-07-2003, 11:53 PM

I LOVED this game! My cousin had it for her NES, and we always played it whenever I came over. I could never get passed that Soda Pop guy... But I gotta admit that Glass Joe is my favorite character. He was so funny in between rounds (that is, when you decide not to KO him during round one).

Peanut · 10-08-2003, 09:27 AM

I would play it on my NES but I don't have it. That was one game I always loved but never bought.
