Collector interest
A Visco arcade boxer in the wake of Punch-Out!!, this 1988 Famicom title surprises with the gap between its boxed value and its very low loose price. A clean complete copy is far harder to find than the bare cartridge, a sign of a modest run from a minor third party. Its semi-transparent boxer gimmick and gallery of caricatured opponents make it a niche curiosity, desirable mainly to collectors of scarce Famicom boxing games.
