Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!

A boxing game about Little Mac working up the ranks of the World Video Boxing Association.

Nintendo R&D3 · Nintendo · 2–4 hrs

Difficulty

A pattern-reading boxing game that pretends to be a reflex test. Every opponent telegraphs. Tyson is a three-minute exam you only pass if the rest of the circuit taught you to wait.

Tips

  • Start here

    Dodge, then star

    A well-timed dodge or counter fills the star. Spend stars on uppercuts, not panic jabs. Von Kaiser and Piston Honda are the tutorial for Tyson's later left-right mix.

  • Bosses

    Tyson blinks before the uppercut

    Round 1: duck the first jab, then settle into the blink. He throws a super uppercut you can duck if you watch the flash, not the glove. Don't trade in the last thirty seconds.
