Punch-Out!! is a video game by Nintendo released for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It is the third game in the series. It was originally released as a limited edition cartridge that was exclusive of Japan, it was then re-released as a regular cartridge.
Why It Punches Out Everything In Its Way
- Good sound design; all the hit sounds, star-punching, the music, everything is great.
- Little Mac now looks better than in the Arcade games.
- The fighting mechanics work well, making the game fairly difficult.
- The characters are well done, their designs look cool, and they are all unique.
- The round intermission screen quotes are good because they can give you tips, or can be funny, such as "Join the Nintendo fun club!" by Doc Louis.
- The game has Mario as the referee, which is something unexpected and interesting to see.
- The final fight of the game is against Mike Tyson himself, which is very cool.
- The game gives codes for continuing in a certain part, making it more fair and fun.
"Help Me, Doc!" Qualities
- In 1990, due to license expiration, they had to re-release the game without Mike Tyson, and instead replace with a generic fighter called "Mr. Dream."
- The code to the Mike Tyson fight is never given in-game.
- Some characters from the Arcade games are missing.
- Kid Quick.
- Pizza Pasta.
- Dragon Chan.
- There are 2 fights against Piston Honda and Bald Bull, while their second fight is harder than the first, it is still kinda repetitive.
