Mike Tyson Punch-Out!! Music: A Quick Look
Okay….
I want to get this project started: the project in question is the whole “Nintendo music project” I recently talked about. As an introduction, I’m going to post a video of one of the more popular Nintendo games ever: Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! Very quickly: it was created in 1987, and features Little Mack, who has to make it through an array of boxers to finally make it to Tyson. According to most accounts, Tyson is one of the toughest video game bosses ever. I’ll go over the game itself in more detail in further posts.
Before I post the video, I want to mention that I’ve been doing a little research, and I’ve come to the following conclusion: there are three different types of Nintendo songs:
1) Sports/Racing songs: these songs are usually upbeat, and tend to pump you up. Tyson’s song is included in this bunch.
2) Mario songs: These aren’t specifically from Mario Bros., but they are the upbeat type songs associated with Mario Bros.
3) Legendary songs: I think this is where the best songs will come from. They are along the same lines as Mario type songs, but have a more serious edge to them. We’ll get to all of this stuff.
For now, check it the song from Punch-Out!!, see if it gets you pumped up, and leave a comment if you have anything to add. Thanks.
Until Next Time,
Greg

I loved playing this game as a kid and I love the music from it. Especially when he is jogging with his coach
