Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! | Table of Contents | Walkthrough

Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! works on a dodge-counterpunch system, which is to say, you dodge your opponent's punch, and then quickly counterpunch to stun them. Once stunned, you can get in several free punches before they come to their senses.

[edit] Controls

[edit] Dodging

- Dodge Left.
- Dodge right.
- Duck

[edit] Punching

- Low Left punch. Left punches are quicker than right punches and do a little less damage.
- Low Right Punch. Right punches are slower than left punches but do a little more damage.
+ - High Left Punch.
+ - High Right Punch.
- Uppercut (if you have a star)

The game cannot be paused; you must wait for the end of the round or match.

Ducking is a useless move since dodging is faster and works just as well.

Not all opponent attacks can be blocked, but all can be dodged.

If you press and immediately press (or press and immediately press ) you will return to the center more quickly. This is the quick-dodge, an important technique against Mr. Sandman's uppercuts, since he will hit you hard if you dodge too long.
