Punch-Out is one of the most popular and biggest selling video games of all time. Step into the ring as Little Mac, a 17-year-old fighter from the Bronx, ranked number three in the minor circuit. Your goal is to work your way up through the rankings so that you can challenge Mr. Dream, in a dream fight. But the road to the championship is long and hard. You'll have to work your way up through the minor, major, and world circuits by winning 14 bouts against some very tough opponents. The rules of the World Video Boxing Association govern your bouts. Each match is three three-minute rounds long. Any boxer knocked down for a 10 count is Knocked Out (KO). If a boxer goes down three times, he'll find himself a Technical Knock Out (TKO). If both boxers make it to the end of the third round, the ref determines the winner. Once you're in the ring you'll have to beat your opponent with smart fighting. Use left and right punches, as well as uppercuts to knock your opponent to the mat. Dodge your opponent's blows with some fancy footwork. Dazzle them with your brilliance and you'll be the World Video Boxing Association Champion. On the other hand, you might find yourself down for the count. Although the NES version of Punch-Out!! was released commercially in Japan after the North American version, a special gold-painted cartridge was also produced by Nintendo for the Famicom. Only ten thousand copies of the Punch-Out!! golden Famicom cartridge were made; the box, manual and label all feature artwork of Bald Bull, and the housing's overall shape resembles that of larger NES cartridges. This rare version of the game was distributed by Nintendo as a prize in a Famicom Golf "U.S. Course" tournament event held in September 1987, only a month prior to Punch-Out!!'s release overseas. Super Macho Man is the final opponent in this version; there is no match against Tyson or Mr. Dream.
