Punch-Out!! (NES) Playthrough

Описание: A playthrough of Nintendo's 1990 boxing game for the NES, Punch-Out!!

Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! (   • Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (NES) Playthrough  ) was huge when it hit the NES in the fall of 1987, and it had staying power. It was still in print and selling well three years after its initial debut, and to meet the demand, Nintendo was preparing another production run for the summer of 1990.

But this time, since Nintendo's contract with Mike Tyson had recently expired, they removed his likeness from the game and shortened the title to Punch-Out!! "The Legendary" Mr. Dream, with his cheesy grin and off-puttingly sallow skin, takes over in Iron Mike's stead. He's not a new fighter, though. His bio may say that he's from Dreamland and that he has a 99-0 record, but he's really just a white (and thus legally distinct, presumably) Mike Tyson. All of their moves, patterns, animations, and dialogue are identical.

I didn't want this video to be a mere rehash of my playthrough of Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!!, so I decided to challenge myself with a goal that would force me to learn the game better.

I wanted to find out if it was possible to win every fight with a KO. It took a fair bit to learn how to wear the fighters down without TKOing them, and it's much harder playing like this, but I really enjoyed it. It reminded me of how much fun I had figuring out Punch-Out strategies as a kid.

I almost managed a clean sweep, but I couldn't figure out how to KO Great Tiger and Bald Bull in the Major Circuit. Still, I was pretty happy with being able to nail down twelve of the fourteen fights, and I liked how the slower pace allowed me to show many of the between round chats.

"Let's keep it clean! Now come out boxing!"
