Punch-Out!! - Boxing
Update: 2021-03-29
Description
Jay calls Dave to remember the controller-breaking, frustrating experience of Punch-Out!!, and it’s centerpiece track: Boxing. Jay demonstrates how the composers of Punch-Out!! drew direct inspiration from Bill Conti’s Going The Distance from the feature film Rocky, and how impressive it is how these 8-bit composers could pack in so much feeling of determination using such limited music technology, and create an appropriate motivating game soundtrack to pair with what can only be described as the Dark Souls of the early NES era.
