Punch-Out!! Gold (NES) Playthrough - NintendoComplete

[@NintendoComplete]

This is the very first NES version of Punch-Out!! It was a Japanese-exclusive title that could only be won in a contest - it's a pretty nifty novelty piece with some interesting differences from the US versions, so I'd thought I'd share :)

[@DerivativeWorker]

This version sounds absurdly rare!

[@noface8404]

NintendoComplete so that’s why it seemed different

[@kellykondolios9001]

How do you spell exclusive this game is bad ass. my favorite Nintendo character.

Ah, so that's why there's no special match with either Mike Tyson or Mr. Dream like in later versions.

[@hanchiman]

A real classic.. I am still used with the one with Mike Tyson

[@Gen965]

Yea and I still don't understand why did they take him off punch out..

[@hanchiman]

@@Gen965 The license was over. And also by the time the license was over, Tyson lost his championship to Buster Douglas at the time so Nintendo find no point in renewing his name. Everyone thought it was due to his rape allegation. But the end of his license happened before that.

[@CarbyGuuGuu]

@@Gen965 License expired because he was getting too expensive. Punch-Out!! never started with Mike Tyson to begin with, he was just a guest opponent who can only be accessed through a password. The franchise started with a simple arcade game which then got a sequel. Finally, we got the Famicom version which added Tyson in the Western release. Replaced with Mr. Dream after the license expired.

[@hoopla1480]

I gotta say, the drastic recoloring and spotty Engrish of this version make it feel like something you’d find on one of those 999 in 1 cartridges, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it ended up on at least one of them. But that’s just me, and it’s nice to see some quality play of this neat Famicom tidbit

[@DarkPuIse]

Wonderfully unchanged: Don Flamenco still eats his rose.

[@Envirse1]

Lol what do you mean unchanged? This came before Mike Tyson's Punch Out!!

[@Diego_Aracena_Kovacevic]

No Mr. Dream or Mike Tyson?? I really preffer this version very much. It is for human being players.

[@Loader2K1]

I'm going to have to agree with you. In hindsight, the NES port of Punch-Out!! probably would have been just as popular today without the endorsement of Mike Tyson, let alone the replacement final boss, Mr. Dream.

[@vprintingstudios7694]

[@pattrell5257]

Don Flamenco 2 has a star punch opening to the belly as he jabs. Get 3 and you can stop him in 1 round. When you use the last star hit, make sure that you combo into it or he probably will dodge it. If he dodges the last star, he might escape the 1st round... Whenever Super Macho Man pauses to spin punch, you hit him to the head for a star, hit him again and he'll block, hit him again and you'll get another star. This is the pattern and you should have enough time to get at least 2 stars before he does his spin punch(es). Piston Honda 2 has the same weakness when he pauses to stall for time. So, if a person cannot get the belly KO punch right, follow the pattern stated and you can still get him in 1 round. On Sandman, you can get an extra punch to the head on him when he begins to do his moving hooks. It requires some kind of speed to pull off consistently. Hit him as you normally would. Then, try and hit him one too many times. He will try to hit you when you do that and he's incredibly fast Dodge this punch and hit him. Repeat. Doing this, I have gotten him down 2 plus times. You can also time you punches to the belly and get a 1st rd TKO, but never got that right. I learned something about Soda Popinski. This makes him easy to beat in 1 round. Used to be, if I got 1 star and did not lose that star, I could do it.

[@batofdestiny]

15:45 I don’t recall him pausing for that long in the official release.

[@emmanuelburcham6291]

I don't remember Soda pausing that long either. Would have made him easier to defeat.

[@bobjones1783]

I played through the NES game recently, he pauses if you duck, and gives you an opportunity to get a star

[@batofdestiny]

The early Title Bout’s theme sounds cooler :O

[@Dorelaxen]

I used to be able to actually beat Mike Tyson. Those days are gone forever, it seems. Still have the code committed to memory, though. The wheels might not work so good, but the engine still hums along just fine.

Thanks! I'm not so sure, Punch Out on the Wii didbt cause people to rise up against Nintendo, but who knows. If you wanna see hilariously insensitive Punch Out, you should check out the Commodore 64 clone, Frank Bruno's Boxing :0

[@hanchiman]

[@ThunderFist1978]

So Vodka Drunkenski was called Soda Popinski before the American NES release. Was he ever called by his original name in the home ports?

[@NintendoComplete]

I don't believe they ever used that name in any the home versions

[@ThunderFist1978]

It's odd that they wouldn't use it in Japan, firstly since Japan usually lets more content fly that we tend to find questionable, especially back then, and secondly all the remarks Soda makes that point to alcohol. I can understand his name getting changed in the American home ports, but I always thought his name went unchanged in Japan, at least in the Famicom release.

[@GaryBeltz]

They only used it in the Arcade version just like how the bathrooms in the Bay Area level of the First Final Fight have the word "Sex" in graffiti on the bathroom stalls whereas the SNES version they changed it to some random crap.

[@tawahnagreen4765]

I remember this game

[@kevinmcqueary7395]

whenever I see this, I start thinking that The Simpsons must've done a reference to this very game; the scenes in which Homer and Bart play a boxing video game in the episode, Moaning Lisa. in fact, I can imagine either Homer or Bart as Little Mac. probably Bart. and Homer perhaps as King Hippo.

I just got this version for free on Nintendo switch without Mike tyson it’s not fun besides Mike Tyson is in the United States not Japan so there aren’t to many fans in Japan that care if Mike Tyson is in the game

[@GaryBeltz]

There's also a 3rd version of the game the license to use Mike Tyson ran out at some point during the production so they made just a punch out game which is the same as the Mike Tyson version without him but instead they replaced him with some guy they called Mr. Dream.

[@CarbyGuuGuu]

This one came first, though. The Mike Tyson edition came later.
