NES Longplay [043] Mike Tyson's Punch-Out 

Mario the only man who can hold a steady job as a plumber save the toad kingdom and still have time to referee a boxing match when he's done

The cool thing about all these characters is that each one had their own personality. Thanks mom for giving me and my brother everything

I swear this game has some of the best music for an 8 bit console, I really like the intro theme for each boxer. This game was ahead of its time.

Still the most fun boxing game of all time.

I like that long count between 9 and 10 on King Hippo. Someone must've paid Mario some good cash!

Adam Sandler starring as : don flamenco

Man I love this game. The music never gets old after hearing thousands of times

Amazing to know that the trainer is actually Carl Winslow himself.

I thank my friend Mher for pointing me to this and to my old friend Rob who passed recently, for spending ten hours a week playing this game with me when we served together. Also, I want to thank Rob's family, who indulged me with the honor of playing this game in a sense to help me heal from his loss. We all played a lot of games and enjoyed each others, and puppies, company this last weekend. We love you guys Mel, Alex and Zach! I do not think they will see this today or in the near future, but perhaps someday!

I played this game in 1989. I was 8 years old. I finally beat this game in 2019 I'm 38 now dang it took me 30 years to beat this game lol

Ah, memories....I remember when my little brother and I used to play this in the 90s. My little bro was about 7 at the time, and Bald Bull had been giving him problems for days. When he finally beat him, it warranted a dinner-interrupting telephone call to his best friend, who lived next door. Good times, good times.....

Why I watched the entire video...I will never know. Made me think about my Dad playing this game when I was a little kid. He beat Tyson, made my fucking day. RIP Dad, miss you every day... even watching this makes me happy thinking about the times we had together.

So Mario has different jobs. Being a plumber, being a hero, and being a referee.

My mother caught me using the f-bomb for the first time when I was playing this game when I was about 14. Mike Tyson. I can't remember how many times it took me to beat him, but, the fight with him pissed me off!!! Aahhh, the memories!!! Great vid, btw!

There are some things that are timeless... Old Car styles, Classic Art, Culinary Arts, even certain Video Games have a timeless aspect to them. THIS! Mike Tyson's Punch Out for the NES is one such game. Time has not hurt this game one bit.

To the ones unfortunate enough to grow up with this, this was incredible when it came out. Nes in general was. I cant even describe it

One of the best video games ever! Don Flamenco 2, Sandman, Macho Man and Tyson were the only ones that gave me serious trouble. That is with a lot of practice too. It's not an easy game!

My first REAL experience to the NES 8-bit generation , after years playing Atari2600 games! Such a classic game! Sweet memories from 1991... thanks for sharing!

This takes me back. What a game lol

This game brings back so many memories, my brother used to play this game when we were kids, I used to watch my brother play this video game all the time.

The faces that these characters make when Little Mac hits them..Haha

12:36 first time Li'l Mac even took a punch in his career. 16:39 first fighter to make it out of the first round. Damn what an amazing fighter he was. Definitely GOAT. And he was fighting 50 lbs over what should have been his weight class too!

The only one I couldn't beat was Tyson. One of my all time favorite games as a kid.

0:17 to 0:40 "it's a nintoaster. and yes, it works"

27:29: Knocked your enemies down! 28:06: Ouch! You’re already down! Get up quick! 28:19: That’s for knocking me down, Sandman!

28:08... FOR THE 1ST TIME IN HIS CAREER! MAC GOES DOWN! MAC GOES DOWN! OH MY!

Look at the newspaper date... 01/04/1987

The music and SFX in this game are the best 👍👍

I was worried about glass joe fight. that was a close one

I still want to know who the heck Glass Joe Knocked out....

This game was such a freaking EVENT when I was a kid. Pure magic.

So funny hearing Soda Popinski’s laugh that’s from Zelda 2 The Adventure Of Link when it’s game over

6:19 NIGGA STOLE MY BIKE!!!

The classics never get old...

Def one of the best top 10 NES titles. Spent hours & hours playing this as a kid...

15:19 my favourite theme xd

Great game, but as with most NES titles a very anticlimactic ending after HOURS of frustration.

At the beginning the sound scared the shit out of my dog :(

SWEEEET!!! - Thanx for taking me back to my child hood years in middle school. Loved this game.

When I played through the second Bald Bull fight I thought that him regenerating when his health runs out was just a bullshit glitch (no pun intended) until I realized you had to use a super uppercut or counter his bull charge 😂

*”until you reach Ears-Is-Tasty himself”* This is gold.

6:19 & 13:32 *NIGGA STOLE MAH BIKE*

Great video! my favorite NES game of all time

Love the color change of his gloves during each knockout.

He beat Glass Joe when it was 2:59 on the clock. Joe was almost saved from round 1 TKO by the bell.

6:20 Anyone else ever notice that the trainer riding the bike looks like Carl Winslow from Family Matters (that show from the 1990s that had Urkel)

I always love this game I love all the punch out series it's amazing Little Mac rocks

Amazingly great quality video! I love it!

You make it look so easy! I never had this game, and the first time I ever played it was when I bought the Mini NES last year. Lol, took me awhile to get past Glass Joe. :)

I hated how Nintendo kept releasing the wrong version that had Mr. Dream. This here, the one with Iron Mike himself, is the REAL NES Punch Out. It is a fun game, no doubt, but I enjoy Super Punch Out in the SNES way more. The 16-bit game is more polished and balanced on controls. World Circuit is always trouble. I like how Little Mac is tiny because the NES can't put him in the proper size the '84 arcade did. But I seriously don't recommend this on the NES Classic if you're aiming to beat the game, because this game demands perfect reflexes and LCD tvs can't register the speed quick enough to dodge Mr. Sandman, Super Macho Man, or Mike Tyson.

I literally gasped at the last hit on tyson. like, a loud, half shocked and half surprised gasp. what a way to finish a game

Love this game, 9yrs old in 1990 when I got it, love the music, thx for this video!!!

when i first saw the Bald Bull i was like" Holy Crap! Is that wat im gonna look like at 36??!!??"

My dream since i was 8 years old was to play and beat Mike Tyson, was too poor to own a Nintendo in the late 80's/early 90's. Today as a hardcore videogame collector, finally played this game from start to finish. All bosses took 1 hour to beat all. Machoman took me 5 hours. Mike Tyson took me 2 days totaling 36 hours and OVER 500 attempts!!! Now i can beat him with ease. -Players MUST memorize all 6 of his attack patterns for all 3 Rounds. -The game trys to program you with timing and the game music get's memorized by the human brain, so in Round 1 when he does his stutter before attacking you dodge too early and he gets you that way. I was able to counter this by wearing a headset playing aggressive music (Death Grips - The Money Store) which forced me to only move when seeing the blue flash and preventing my brain from memorizing any timing from game music. The wining percentage went to a point where i can almost beat him every time now, it made a massive difference! -You do more damage by attacking back on the side he's punching on. -You do more damage by delaying your 2nd punch (you can also hear a sound difference on the 2nd hit when you time the 'Delayed Punch' correctly. -The start of the 2nd round you can get unlimited stars if you block + body hit Tyson, but you need to body attack him BEFORE he throws the punch, the game delays the input feedback. You do this by blocking and spamming the attack button AT THE SAME TIME WHILE YOU'RE BLOCKING. You can do this strategy until you are out of hearts, after that you'll be tired but the good thing is it forces Tyson to change his punching strategy which then allows you to not only can u start punching him in the face to do major damage, but also speeds up the round process giving you more time in the Round 2 to do more damage, increasing your odds for a 3rd knockdown win. -Players MUST take advantage of attacking him back each time Tyson misses, in order to have enough time to knock him down enough times before the Round ends. To win Tyson is not a race to go the distance, the goal is to down him 3 times in Round 2. -You can beat Tyson by a 'Decision' in round 3 if you knock him down more times vs how many times he knocked you down and by reaching 5000 points. -Easiest way to beat Tyson would be knocking him down 3 times in Round 2. One strategy is to get him down to 5% health at the end of Round 1, so you can get the fast knockdown at the begining of Round 2. -Round 1 keep your eyes on his black shorts to see the blue flash. When he changes and starts punching forward during the next half of the round, keep your eyes on his eyes and wait for his winking eyes. For the rest of the game keep your eyes on his eyes. -In the middle of Round 2, Tyson will do his forward punching special attack + 2 uppercuts. DON'T block as shown in this video as you take damage and he tires you out preventing you to do a counter attack to damage Tyson and burning your clock. Instead, Dodge 4 times to the left, making Tyson waste his special attack and preserving your health. You must dodge 4 times with the D-pad in almost a 'Delayed' pattern with a 'flow' to it. Tap-tap-tap-tap. -Use your Stars safely when Tyson misses during his 'Wink Punch'. Punch ONE time to stun him, then use your Star. This will do massive damage helping you get those 3 knockdowns in Round 2.

I dont know why i thought about this game that i decided to look it up and watch this awesome longplay. I was never good at it as a kid because I was just focused on hitting the other guy but didn’t understand the concept of stamina and dodging. So I was awful with this game, but i loved the music. Thanks for the upload and the good memories.

Maybe I should get an NES system so I can play punchout

i still think of the 'nigga stole my bike' meme when i see that scene lol

daaamn! fly like a butterfly sting like a bee!

I always admire the crowd's cheer in this one.

Great walkthrough! I loved this game when I was a kid:)

1:28 Dude, Mario's gone Turbo!

0:19 looks like the father from Family Matters lol

A true classic... NES games never get old.

This is my favourite NES game. It's a classic, I love it.

why does Bald Bull look like Charles Barkley?

7:03 I love Don's dance...

The "training intermissions" in this game were redone for Punch Out!! Wii. The scene of Doc Louis and Little Mac is faithfully recreated. Said recreated scene comes after a bit of training at the gym.

Killer playthrough...thanks! :)

I defeated Tyson only 2 times! I remember my hands sweeting and my younger brother aside as the only supporter, excited too lol, what a game Punch out!

This would make a great movie.. Don't you think.

The best Boxing game ever!. Nice played. Mike Tyson fight is so hard. I won back in time, and few years ago, repeat thats.

Lol @ the look on Mr.Sandman's face when he throws a punch

One of Mike Tyson's moves should have been ear bite.

Hardest part (other than Tyson) was timing Sandman's uppercut sequence, 1 and you're done. And why did Macho Man have gray hair in his pic when it said he's 27 lol??

That was beautiful Brian.

3:29 that actually startled me for a second cause I never saw Von Kaiser do that before

Str8 up classic. This is a flashback I love it...

Let's go.

FANTASTIC playthrough.

MAN This takes me back!!!

Who's here after Deltarune Chapter 2?

11:01 what kind of laugh is that?

Loved this game as a kid :)

Did you know that while the round is over, spam select so that you can regenerate health

give mike tyson a chance

I love the stereotypes in this game, so funny

Amazing performance!

Nice playthrough, made it look a lot easier than it actually is.

At least in this one Tyson doesn't try and bite your ear off

I always thought Don Flamenco looks like Inspector Gadget!

🥊 My twin brother and I used to play this along with our older brother. Good memories.

The game has clearly inspired Attack on Titan, human is the character, the foe is an Abnormal Titan

As soon as Mike winks he's punchin! lol

Man this game was fun back then lol

my first game on my first console! Love it!

viejos tiempos renacen al ver este gran juego...

Am I the only one who was scared shitless by Mr. Sandman as a kid?

That twister Punch from Super macho man was nerveracking but the music was awsome for 8-bi luved the training music too this game so ahead of it's time for 1987 release.lol I used to have all the pass keys memorized and fighting King Hippo was so funny I remember my little brother cracking up laughing at him keeping his drawls shorts up lol!

Lembro-me muito bem, lá pelo final dos anos 80 e começo de 90 que conseguir esse jogo e jogava muita, muitas vezes. Tempos memoráveis esses anos 80.

about as awesome as you can play it.. i could never get past super macho man.... youre a BEAST!!!!
