If you have twenty minutes to spare….

Before I leave you on the day, I felt a YouTube video was in order.

Here’s a clip of someone beating Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! for NES in 17:52. Very impressive, indeed.

Now, I’ve heard rumblings that these expert gamers who beat old NES games in insanely fast times (Mario Bros. etc.) manipulate the game code/ROMS and use cheats to make it easier for themselves, but we’re going to pretend that doesn’t even fall into the equation for this one.

No matter what, this game used to agitate us to no end and facing Iron Mike at the end was near impossible. So, actually seeing this feat still amazes the heck out of us.

Damn you, Soda Popinski!
