Cant believe I haven't logged this yet. Top 5 game on the SNES for me. Me and my cousin spent countless hours playing this. Still remember we hit a wall for ages against that bastard Hoy Quarlow, the pure joy when we finally beat him was indescribable. And then once we beat it, I fully got into speed running the game, before speed running was even a thing. So many great memories from this amazing game. The original Punch-Out gets way more attention for some reason, but this one is so much better IMO.

Fucking Flawless. To me, its improves on everything from the first game. It feels more responsive, opponents are less bullshit and the controls are more varied.

I think one of the best things about this game is how your supposed to approach it. This game awards aggressiveness, instead of just dodging and countering, especially with the addition of the Super Punch, which feels a million times better than the Star Punch.

I'm pretty sure the Punch Out series cant get much better than this, but i'll just have to wait and see until the Wii one.

I haven't played this game in like a decade so getting back into it was a little tough, thankfully the starter fights are good for getting you back into that groove. The fights really ramp up in difficulty but it's pretty easy to learn what to do when if you give it some time. There's still tough execution but when you know what to do when it's a lot more comfortable, and I really like that. At the end of the day this is just really fun boxing game, one that pretty much anyone can get into, like the NES one.

8/10
