Memories like this are the best.

Now he’s teaching me how to drive Funny how things come full circle in a way……….

Little Mac isn't in this version of the game. He was created for the NES port because they couldn't do the transparent wire-frame graphics on the NES. That's why Little Mac is so little, it's so you can see the opponent.

I've never really seen the original Punch-Out, actually, so this is cool to see! Especially since Danny's such a big fan of it.

@@lepeflo8958 You're saying that like all of the others contestant are not racist stereotypes...

[@lepeflo8958]

@@dallunatic yes but Pizza Pasta has had only appeared in one punch-out game the original arcade release. Which was way more racist then the newer punch-out games. along with that like I said he was replaced by Don so there would be really no point of him returning and even then he not that popular so Nintendo would have no reason to bring him back. lastly I will say a lot of characters are stereotypes but not racist ones anymore. They now speak there mother language and like Aaron said about Piston Honda "he has such a great personality" which the entire point of racism is to remove all personality of a race to make them seem less then you. yes there still stereotypes but not racist ones

I actually remember seeing an original Punch-Out!! arcade cabinet in a skating rink as a kid. I remember going there as a school event, and the teachers wouldn't let us go into the arcade part because there were people smoking (this was when you could still smoke indoors; gotta love the 90's!), but I distinctly remember seeing this game in there.

[@lum4r]

The arcade version of Punch-Out!! had two screens because Nintendo had a massive surplus of old TVs that they had purchased, in bulk, in response to the huge success of Donkey Kong. They basically told Genyo Takeda "Do something good that uses two screens." He made Punch-Out!!, went on to make StarTropics, and was instrumental in securing a deal between Nintendo Japan and Rare for the rights to make Donkey Kong Country.
