I played this game so many times that after 11 years, I still remember the moves and secrets - I surprised myself. This is the lasting effect of a wonderful game.
This is a classic video game and I hope that the newer video game systems have made an archive CD/cartridge that contains this game.
I'm sure that it brings back memories (good or bad) for the former Champ. Mike - brilliant game!

I am pretty sure I had mike Tyson's punch out and not punch Out.
I remember as a child renting this video game every time I got a chance to. I could not wait to play it. Later I bought the game.
I would always get to king hippo and then lose. A friend and I had to call the Nintendo hotline to learn how to beat king hippo. I remember one time I was able to beat mike Tyson. I don't know how I did it. I am not the worlds best video game player by any means. And Mike Tyson was tough to beat.
This is the only boxing video game I have ever played. I liked the music and the sounds of the game. My favorite boxer was Mike Tyson.

This game is so fun awesome and entertaining. The graphics are really awesome and quite interesting. I am going to tell you all the characters you vs in Mike Tyson's Punch-Out. GLASS JOE, VON KAISER, PISTON HONDA, DON FLAMENCO, KING HIPPO, GREAT TIGER, BALD BULL, SODA POPINSKI, SANDMAN, SUPER MACHO MAN, and last but not least the boxing champion MIKE TYSON. The person you play against them is LITTLE MAC and his trainer is DOC LOUIS. The referee is the most video game played character MARIO. This is the best punch-out in my book of best video games. I have a list called ALL MY VIDEO GAMES you could check that out. HOWEVER this is so fun bye.
I was eight when this game came out, and I was obsessed with it at 10 years old. My friends and I would spend entire days playing this game. I beat Tyson only once, and it was the single greatest moment of my young life at the time. I remember you had to wait until he moved his hands to hit you, and strike quickly to hit him. I also know if he hit you, you hit the canvas. I can remember pounding on the A button, yelling "GET UP" after old Mike knocked me down. One thing I never got was how Glass Joe ever moved up in the rankings. You fight him first, then you see him again later at the higher levels. Maybe this is the game makers example of corruption in boxing.
I loved this game, and i wish I still had it.

This game is just incredible. Its ahead of its time. Why? Because I'm 25 and still enjoy playing this game if I can find a working original NES. I don't think I can ever grow tired of this game. This might be the best NES ever made. That and Ninja Gaiden. Techmo Bowl was fun, too, but those games have been outdone in the later years. This is one game that will never lose its luster. Play it till your fingers bleed...because if Tyson knocks you down a second time, they just might bleed from the rapid 'B' button execution to get up. Remember that? I still have blisters from 1988 doing that.

- TriviaIn 1990, Nintendo rebranded this game's title from Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (1987) to simply "Punch-Out!!" and re-released it in the United States after their license with Mike Tyson had expired. The removal of Tyson's name and likeness from the game was not related to Tyson's arrest, and later conviction, of rape, which occurred a year after Nintendo's rebranding.

- Alternate versionsThe game was released in two versions. The original version, released in 1987, and an edited version several years later, after the licensing deal with Mike Tyson expired. For the re-release, the game's name was changed to simply "Punch Out!", and Mike Tyson was replaced with the fictional boxer Mr. Dream.
