Mike Tyson's
Punch Out!!
FAQ by DaMan
E-mail: death_hunter2k@yahoo.com
(Also Titled Punch Out!!)
Hello everybody! This is my first FAQ/Walkthrough, and is also my
best. (In my opinion) I created the FAQ sometime last June or July, sent it
in to gamefaqs Augest 29, 1999 and it has had many changes and face-lifts
since then. It's been almost a year now that's it's been on the World Wide
Web, and I have worked on it for over a year. I hope you find this FAQ
useful.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last Update- 08/09/2000
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.0-8/29/1999
Created the FAQ, will help you beat the game.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.1-8/30/1999
Added an e-mail I got. (Look at the bottom for that)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.2-10/18/1999
Hmmm. Have not updated this in a while. I changed my E-mail address and
added title art to make this FAQ a little better. Hope you like. I also
spell checked the darn thing!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.3-11/3/1999
What? For some reason the title art did not show up. Weird. If anyone has a
program for title art or something would you be kind enough to make title
art for me? You will get full credit. I changed a few minor errors.
Such as I forget a few words in a sentence or the spell checker did not
catch something. Most likely the last update for this poor little FAQ,
unless you send me your questions. (I have written a Boss Guide for
Battletoads and Double Dragon for the SNES, but it has not gotten posted
yet, strange.) Also added all of the dates I updated this thing.
(What? I was bored!)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.4-11/10/1999
Hopefully this time the title art will show up. (I did it myself.) If it
doesn't then I'm gonna update this FAQ until I finally figure out how to
make some ASCII art.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.5-11/15/1999
I just wanted to center some things and make this FAQ look better. I am
also really _REALLY_ sure that this is the last update this FAQ is ever,
eeeeever going to see again. And as always, remember to smell what DaMan is
cookin'.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.6-03/13/2000
Gave the FAQ a facelift. Also added different ASCII art. Look at the bottom
of the FAQ for the old one, if you liked it better... Oh well. Most likely
the last update, since I have not recieved _ANY_ mail for it...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.7-06/24/2000
Ahem... This FAQ is on yet another site... I guess it's not that
un-popular... Oh well.. Probably the last update unless someone want's this
on thier site..
Oh, and I added section 9.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.8-07/29/2000
Added an all new section (8) and added on to the credits. Again... This
could be the last update...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.9-08/07/2000
Added another all new section, gave the FAQ face-lift (read: re-did
layout), restored old ASCII artand got rid of the stinky new
one. Also re-did the introduction.
Kinda big update, no?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 2.0-08/09/2000
Changed a mistake found in update history, added to the FAQ section. Also
refined some boxer stratigies a little bit.

1. Basics-
***************************************************************************
Story:
***************************************************************************
Basicly, you are a young 17 year old teen who has the ambition to become
the WVBA Heavyweight Champion. But it's not going to be easy. You have to
fight monsters of boxers, who look like they're on steroids, survive
rigourious training and eventually fight Mike Tyson (Mr. Dream) himself to
become the WVBA Champ. It ain't gonna be easy, but this guide will take
some of the guesswork outta the matches.
***************************************************************************
Punching:
***************************************************************************
Left Jab:
Press and hold up, then press the B button.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right Jab:
Press and hold up, then press the A button.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Left Body Blow:
Press the B button.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right Body Blow:
Press the A button.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upper Cut:
First obtain a star, then press the Start Button.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
***************************************************************************
Defense:
***************************************************************************
Dodge:
Press either left or right. Hold down left or right for a longer dodge.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Duck:
Press down twice in rapid succession.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Block:
Press and hold down.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
***************************************************************************
Technique
***************************************************************************
The Basic Strategy:
Dodge an opponent's punch, then return a few of your own.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Advanced Strategy:
Dodge an opponent's punch, then return 2-3 (more if you dodged a special
attack) and give them an upper-cut.*
*Requires one star.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Art of Countering:
To counter an opponent is quite simple really, and earns you a star most of
the time. To pull this off, when an opponent is about to give you a Left
Jab, you counter with a Right Jab. This is easier than it sounds, because
when boxers are about to throw a jab, they always lean to one side before
throwing. So if they lean to your right (their left), and are about to
throw a jab, thorw a Right Jab of your own to counter them and get a star.*
*Basicly, if they lean to your left and are about to throw a Jab/Body Blow,
counter with a Left Jab/Body Blow. Same goes for when they lean right.

you'll get full credit, with your name in the credits section!!

2. MINOR CIRCUIT-
This circuit includes three boxers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Glass Joe-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This guy is a JOKE. Why even put him in the game? You could probably
beat him on your own, but here goes anyway. What I do his punch him in
face or in the stomach four times. (Depending on which part he is guarding)
On the fourth punch he should block your punch. If he does, switch the
offense to either the stomach or the face. Repeat this process until he
goes down. When he gets up, he will start punching. Just dodge and return
the favor. (Let's call that the basic strategy.) If you have a star,
dodge one of his punches, hit him in the face and smack him with the
upper-cut. Once in a while he will back up, do a little dance or something
like that and come back down and try to punch you. Right when he comes back
down smack him in the face. He should go down or you get a star. If you
get a star, just dodge his punch and use the basic strategy. Repeat the
strategies above to beat Glass Joe.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Von Kaiser-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This guy is a little tougher than Glass Joe. He starts out by throwing
jabs at you. He telegraphs these by wiggling his head and then throwing
the punch. You can use the basic strategy here or if you time it exactly
right, you can give him a right body blo and earn a star. If you earn a
star, dodge his punch, smack him in the face and use the star. He should go
down. When he gets up, he will start throwing upper-cuts. Just punch him in
the gut* while he is ducking to earn a star. Do you know what to do with
the star? I hope so. When he gets up again, he'll throw more upper-cuts.
You know what to do.
*If he leans to your left, then throw a left body blow at him while he's
ducking. If he leans right, smack him with a right body blow whiles he's
ducking. This goes for any-one and everyone.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
***************************************************************************
Piston Honda-
Here he is, the champ. If you can manage to sneak in a hit while he's
not doing anything, you get a quick and easy star. He has four attacks.
The first one you will probably encounter his a jab. He telegraphs this
by wiggling his eyebrows. Just use the basic strategy here. When he
moves his right hand out to his side (left from your perspective) nail
him in the face left jab to earn a star. If you miss or don't want to,
just use the basic strategy. At 1:00 in the round, Piston Honda will back
up, dance to the left, dance to the right and come down at you and throw a
burst of punches to your head. Just each of them until he is done or when
he comes back into punching range nail him in the gut to knock him down.
If you are late you will earn a star and still have to block his punches.
The fourth attack he does is an upper-cut. Just use the basic strategy.
Repeat the strategies above to beat Piston Honda.
***************************************************************************
=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=
3. MAJOR CIRCUIT
This circuit includes four boxers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don Flamenco-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This guy, in my humble opinion, is easier than Glass Joe. As soon as he
comes out, try to nail him in the face. He will block and try to hit you
with hi Flamenco Punch. This is a HUGE upper-cut. Dodge it, then hit him
in the face with B button, follow up with A to the face, back to B in the
face and so on until he is knocked down. When he gets back up, he will try
to hit you with his Flamenco Punch, dodge and do the same thing as earlier.
If he gets up again, do the same strategy as above. Simple.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
King Hippo-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This guy is so large he has his own zip-code. He has two, count them,
two attacks. One his a normal hit to the face, and no, the basic strategy
does not work here. "How do you hurt him then?" you ask. Simple.
His second attack goes like this- He vibrates, lifts his arm up in the air,
OPENS HIS MOUTH, and attacks. What you do here is nail him in the mouth,
his pants will go down, exposing a bandage over his bellybutton. Nail on
that bandage until he recovers. Repeat the strategy above to KO KH*.
(*King Hippo)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Great Tiger-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
He starts out with simple jab, telegraphed by a jewel on his turban
flashing. You can use the basic strategy to hit him once, or sacrifice
some hearts to block his punch to hit him in the face five times. After
you knock him down, he will start throwing upper-cuts. Just nail him in
the gut to get a star, dodge one of his punches and hit him in the face
three times at which point you will follow up with the star. Repeat the
process until he goes down again. When he gets up he will throw more
upper-cuts. You know what to do. At 2:30 in the round he will do his
special punch. He'll spin around in circles around the ring, throwing a
jab each time he comes to you. Just block about five jabs and he will get
dizzy. Just hit him in the face to send him down.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
***************************************************************************
Bald Bull-
***************************************************************************
This guy has a punch like no other. We will get to that later. He has
four attacks. The first one you encounter is a jab. He telegraphs this by
rolling his fists around in a circular motion, then throwing the jab. His
second one is a hook to the stomach. He telegraphs this by doing a motion
that looks like he is rubbing his ears. The third attack is one where he
throws an upper-cut. Basic strategy works on all of these moves. Now on to
the punch like no other. This, in my humble opinion, is the hardest to
counter. He hops to the back of the squared circle and hops down back to
you and gives you a vicious upper-cut that sends you down no matter how
much life is on your gauge. No the basic strategy does not apply. You
have to count the hops he takes to get to you. It takes three. So what you
do is count three hops and smack him in the stomach, but believe me, it is
MUCH harder than it sounds.
***************************************************************************

4.WORLD CIRCUIT
This circuit includes six boxers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Piston Honda-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey, look! The "champ" is back! Great! There are a few slight
changes though. He doesn't have a hook any more, and he doesn't dance
around like a freak before he hits you with that combo. He still wiggles
his eyes before doing a jab, which by the way has turned into a three
punch combo. As for not dancing, he hops back, and then hops in front of
you before doing his jab combo, which if you nail in the gut when he
comes into range will KO him. As for not having a hook, he has a weird
upper-cut. He ducks, dodges to the right, to the left, right again, left,
right and repeats until he nails you with his upper-cut. Just punch him
in the gut while he moving back and forth to earn a star.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Soda Popenski-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This guy is an easier version of Super Macho Man. He has two attacks
that I know of. A hook and an upper-cut. Use the basic strategy on both
these punches and you should be fine.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bald Bull-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Didn't we just beat him? The only thing that has changed is you can
ONLY knock him down with an upper-cut or by countering his bull charge.
To get a star, you hit him in the face while he is doing the rubbing his
ear motion slowly.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don Flamenco-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes here. The first noticeable thing is he doesn't just stand there
and allow his buttocks to be beaten into submission after using the
Flamenco punch. Second, he throws some jabs and hooks. Basic strategy
applies to each of these moves. He start out throwing some jabs and hooks.
Pretty soon he will start to taunt you. This is where you try to hit him in
the face. He will block your punch every time. If he blocks it and moves
his head to the right, he will keep blocking. If he blocks your punch and
doesn't move his head, he will throw his infamous Flamenco Punch. Just use
the basic strategy.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mr. Sandman-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This guy is tough IF you don't know how to hurt him. He will start out
throwing some jab telegraphed the Bald Bull way. Just dodge and smack him
in the face. Then he will start throwing some hooks, yet again telegraphed
the Bald Bull way. This is the tough part. You dodge, hit him in the face
then immediately continue to punish his stomach. If you try his face again,
he will only block it. That brings us to his trademark move, a vicious
upper-cut combo. Ouch! He telegraphs it by not doing anything for a while
and then finally flashing. Dodge the three upper-cuts and then hit him in
the face once, then continue to punish his stomach for a while.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
***************************************************************************
Super Macho Man-
***************************************************************************
Tough. Period. He has the same moves as Soda Popenski accept for two
types of spin punches. The first version- He stops doing punches for a
while and then finally vibrates and throws a spin punch. Dodge as soon as
he vibrates. Version 2- After he gets up from being knocked down he will
back up to your left a little bit then flashes and does a spin punch combo
anywhere from 2-10. Dodge each one then when he is down repeatedly smack
him in the head. That is all you need to know to beat Macho.

5. THE DREAM FIGHT
~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@*~!@
Here is the mega boss- Mike Tyson. (Mr. Dream, depending on what cart
you have.) Beating Mike depends mainly on staying alive the first 1:30 of
the fight. If you do that, you have a chance of beating the unbeatable. In
the first 1:30 of the match, he will throw mammoth sized upper-cuts, they
knock you down in one hit! He flashes before throwing the quick death
punches, so as soon as he flashes, dodge! If you survive this part, he
will start throwing some quick hooks. He winks before throwing them. At
the beginning of Round one and two he will throw some none telegraphed
jabs, so be on the defensive. The other move he has is he stands there and
winks a few times and then throws a combo much like Piston Honda's. If you
hit him at the right time, he will go down, and if you hit him late, you
get a star. One more thing, he WILL throw some more of those upper-cuts in
the second and third rounds, but they won't take you down in one hit!

8. E-mails
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello, was browsing through the New Guides section of gamefaqs.com and
saw your MTPO Guide. All I can say is great job! I find it hard to believe
that you're only 10. I just thought I would add, on the Dream Fight, you
can use the basic strategy (As you call it) on the Super-Uppercuts (Or
Dynamite Punches as I think they were called, long long ago....but anyway
:P ), i.e. punch Tyson (Or Mr. Dream) a few times after he tries and misses
with the uppercut. But you have to be QUICK about it. Anyhow if you decide
to put this in (You don't have to--just something I figured out) you can
credit Emptyeye with the address emptyeye@juno.com . Thanks, and once
again great job.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Note: "Anonymous Player" wishes to remain anonymous, and does not want his
e-mail floating around the internet, so don't ask me for it!)
Hello DaMan,
I am a someone who still plays the NES because that's the only system I
have. It came with nine games, one of which was Punch-Out!! (Mr. Dream's
version). Now I have over 30 games, but still enjoy Punch-Out!!
Great FAQ!! It's got all the detail that I knew about that I saw missing in
other FAQ's. I did think that your old ASCII art looked better than the new
one with asterisks. Mostly because it was clearer.
Here's some more info I've noticed over my past three years of playing this
game. You did point out about the connections of Soda Popinski-Super Macho
Man, Piston Honda-Mr. Dream (Tyson), and Bald Bull-Mr. Sandman, but there
aretwo others I have somewhat noticed. There are also connections with
GlassJoe-Don Flamenco and Von Kaiser-Great Tiger. You more have to look at
thesecond Don Flamenco, and look at the punches of Great Tiger.
Here's some more info on Honda and Tyson. When they do their special punch,
back up and four hits, you naturally have to block (unless you hit Honda).
Inbetween each block, you can punch them four times. And for some reason on
Tyson, sometimes these punches will do extra damage in the end, and
sometimesthe last one you inflict, (the 16th) gives you a star. On the
first PistonHonda, you can only get in two punches between each block,
however.
This is probably some useless info, but if you use a block on Tyson's
Dynamite Punch with full energy, you will survive, but you will lose
everything but the tiniest bit of energy. Also, if you knock down Flamenco
(first time) and he gets back up and does that instant Flamenco Punch, you
can hit him in the stomach and earn a star. Then he will attempt the Punch
again, and you can again hit him in the stomach again for another star, and
so on and so forth...
Okay, that's probably too much already. Feel free to put this in your FAQ
ifyou want, but I'm sorry that you cannot give me credit. I can't let my
nameor address be floating out there. PLEASE don't post my address on
there. You could put something like Anonymous Player or something.
Anyway, great FAQ!
