[@CountryRoadist]

Interesting game though. Do you know what the arcade cabinet was like? Was it a button basher? Or you had to waggle the joystick or something? Or did it have an actual arm you wrestled with?

[@HIDEFACES]

Sadly it was just your regular 8 ways stick and 2 buttons. Though there's another arm wrestling arcade game that has just that.

[@CosmicGecko]

As I recall, the joystick had no buttons, but had a 5th switch on it that was activated when you pull the stick upwards. That was how the player was to pull off Bald Bull's mask.

This and Track and Field were the two most noisiest games in my local arcade in 1985. The abuse those two cabinets got was immense. Those were also the two most watched games.

[@fredricgreenblott283]

The clarity of the voice synthesis is amazing for the time. You can even hear the Japanese-English accent of the announcer at 3:49 - “Nao challenge: Arise and Ape Sree.”

[@AstralStriderZ]

Furanku Juniā !

[@leroyvisiongames2294]

You can also hear the announcer in Nintendo’s Wild Gunman has a Japanese accent-he says “FIYAH” when he yells “FIRE!!”. This is because in Wild Gunman, it’s actually a sample of a real person, and there’s a common misconception that it sounds this way due to digital compression (the NES actually had very good sampling capabilities, and audio only sounded scratchy due to most programmers being unfamiliar with a quirk in the hardware that caused data to be read differently, so most games had corrupted sound samples that sounded “rough”).

That could be cool! *Alice and Ape III* would make for especially interesting opponents; with the robot doing the actual boxing, and Alice (who in my headcanon is from Amsterdam, the Netherlands) manually controlling him from just outside the ring. In particular, I could see her using modified Nintendo controllers to do so; an NES Advantage joystick in the Contender bout, and a Virtual Boy (with a more powerful *Ape IV* upgrade) in the Title Defence one. Likewise, I could see *Kabuki* working well as a power/defense-orientated contender (hailing from either Kyoto or Osaka, referencing the cities being the early hotbeds of modern sumo), who could be a boisterous and pragmatic counterpart to the more serious and fair-minded Piston Hondo. In particular, being resistant to body blows and willing to use techniques such as grapples, palm thrusts and ground-shaking stomps (that can stun you for short periods, ala Rick Bruiser) in his bouts.

[@alexv3375]

@Toaast Well, there was the NES Punch-Out (and if you _really_ want to be technical, the Captain N cartoon), where he spoke. :v

[@Ark...........]

I don't think most of them would work but I could see Texas Mac appearing in a punch out game with a name change.

[@kensi8188]

I am old enough to remember this in the arcade...a 'conversion kit' to punch-out, it had two monitors screens on top of one another. Not nearly as popular as punch-out, it left many arcade owners wishing they had not converted it.

[@mr.pavone9719]

I was 12 or so at the time this came out. There were a few teens who could play this forever on a single quarter. It was popular to watch but for the arcade owner it may have been a pain.

[@Krystalmyth]

I imagine the maintenance on the machine and the ease of play was rough on operators. But fun for the players wanting to show off to their girlfriends after the late night movie.

[@thelegendinhisownmind7038]

Yes, I obviously realize that Mask X is Bald Bull, but I am almost 100% certain he was the inspiration behind the boxer Masked Muscle from Super Punch Out (SNES, not arcade). I mean, c'mon he even cheats the same way complete with the random headbutt and all.

[@gnarlymcgnarlson6952]

I've been a long time punchout player and never knew of this game. Mask X def drops head butts like Masked Muscle on SNES.
