Who would've thought that the obscure master system game was bad, Punch Out this is not. Stilted as hell fighting, just the most unsatisfactory gameplay I've ever felt in a game period, and confusing as hell design. The bar at the top isn't the opponent's health, what the hell were they thinking? The opponents fall down at random, it feels almost impossible to not trade hits, and as far as I can tell the only thing you can do is punch left and right, move, and block. Just awful, don't touch it, the game equivalent to sucking on a lemon with just your gums. I'd rather pull teeth then press start on this again
