Tyson would blink twice before he threw a punch. He was the easiesst fighter on the whole game!
I wouldn't say he was the easiest. Don Flamenco or Glass Joe easily take that distinction. Hell, maybe even King Hippo. But he definitely isn't as hard as some people say. I have more difficulty with Mr. Sandman and Super Macho Man. Sometimes the controller just won't react fast enough when avoiding their specials, regardless of how fast you're pressing the button.
New Punch-Out!! Trademark Time to bust out those boxing gloves?
by Juan Castro
April 13, 2005 - Several weeks ago, it seemed as though Nintendo was keeping busy filing patent after patent at the U.S Trademark and Copyright office. And for awhile, gamers everywhere were finding "gold" buried under the mass of technical jargon. Bloggers filled the web with theories, most of which centered on the Nintendo Revolution, the upcoming successor to the GameCube. Then all went quiet. At least for a while. A quick search on the copyright office website reveals Nintendo filed a trademark on April 01, 2005 for Punch-Out!!.
Nintendo fans need no introduction to the Punch-Out!! legacy, but for those who don't know, it's as classic as Mario himself. Even today, Super Punch-Out!! for the SNES holds its own as a fantastic boxing game. So, what does this recent filing mean exactly? Depending on one's imagination, it can mean a little or a lot. A new Punch-Out!! title for the GameCube? Possibly. A Revolution launch title? Maybe. It may even hint at an upcoming Nintendo DS title. The only thing of any real certainty is that no one will know for a very long time. This is Nintendo, after all.

Stay tuned.

A new boxing game just came out or is coming out that has "Super Punch-Out!!" on it as a bonus game. This could just be for that. I don't really know though. I would freaking love a new Punch-Out!! game.

This is how Nintendo can stay relevant nowadays. If they focused on the wonderful games and characters they've proliferated in their past (Metroid, Zelda, Mario, Punch-Out, Tecmo Bowl, etc) and played to a retro market, I know they could rake in the cash. Updated versions with the old games hidden inside....I should be doing their marketing.

They're still pretty relevant. In fact, they make more profit in the gaming industry than either Sony or Microsoft do. A lot of this has to do with their strong dominance in the portable gaming sector, which is why Sony is trying to slice into their market share now with the PSP. They've really cashed in on the Pokemon franchise. Nintendo really plays a conservative style, with low risks that lead to nice rewards. Sony and Microsoft take more chances trying to expand the market, and in doing so they accept more risk and expenses.
As for focusing on the games and characters of the past, that's pretty much all they do. They've ported a lot of their classic NES and SNES games to the Gameboy Advance for starters. On the GC, their big franchises are still the same ones from the old days (Zelda, Metroid, numerous games featuring Mario and/or Luigi + company, etc.)
Personally, I think they need to create some new interesting IP's. They've really only brought forth two in the Gamecube's lifespan, those being Pikmin and Animal Crossing. Those games have limited appeal though. Nintendo needs to understand who's buying console games today. They've continuously lost more more market share with every generation of gaming consoles they've released. This trend only looks to continue, as Nintendo is becoming too quirky for their own good. If Sony happens to cut into Nintendo's last bastion of major revenue, portable gaming, Nintendo could be in trouble.
