Sadly, I have not been able to get my scores in on time for NintendoAge's weekly score contests since Rad Racer... but THIS week, I absolutely HAD too.
MTPO is MY game, y'all.
For this game, however, the rules were quite
specific:
Hello everyone and welcome to the latest installment of the weekly contests. This week's game is going to be an NES classic: Mike Tyson's Punch-Out. For those who do not own Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, you may use good old Punch-Out with Mr. Dream. Here are the rules:
- Fight Glass Joe, Von Kaiser, Don Flamenco (Major Circuit), King Hippo, Piston Honda (World Circuit), and Super Macho Man
- Password for Don Flamenco and King Hippo: 005 737 5423 (fight King Hippo after defeating Don Flamenco)
- Password for Piston Honda: 032 730 8442
- Password for Super Macho Man: 267 853 7538
- Get the fastest time you can against each boxer
- The clock stop glitch is forbidden
- Take your picture on the results screen after each match (make sure to have 6 pictures, one for each boxer)
- If you opt to take your pictures on the KO screen (where Mario says TKO or KO), your milliseconds time will automatically be 99 for that boxer
- If you cannot beat one of the boxers, your time for that boxer will be 9:00. Do this for each boxer you cannot beat (excluding Mike Tyson/Mr. Dream)
- Add up all of your times to get your overall time
- Add three minutes to your time for each round you complete (ex. 1:34:00 of round 2 = 4:34:00 overall for that boxer)
- You may use this time calculator to add up your times: http://www.unitarium.com/time-calculator
- Fastest overall time wins
- GENRE: Sports
BONUS POINTS
That's right, this week you guys can earn some bonus points on the leaderboard. This is entirely optional and you do not have to submit the bonus score if you do not want to. Here's what to do:
- Fight Mike Tyson/Mr. Dream
- Password for Mike Tyson/Mr. Dream: 007 373 5963
- If you beat Mike Tyson/Mr. Dream this week, you will earn 1 bonus point on the weekly leaderboard and Sports genre leaderboard (be quick with your picture after he is defeated)
- Whoever beats Mike Tyson/Mr. Dream the fastest this week will earn 3 bonus points on the weekly leaderboard and Sports genre leaderboard
The contest ends Sunday, 5/12/13 at 10 PM NA time. Your user name MUST be in the picture for your score to be valid. The entire TV screen, or computer monitor if you are playing on an emulator, MUST be in the picture for the score to be valid. No partial screenshots will be considered or accepted. No screenshots by hitting "print screen" on a computer will be allowed. You must take a picture of your computer monitor. There may be instances where this will be acceptable, but it will be at the discretion of myself and the contest organizers. Also, the use of turbo controllers is forbidden, as well as any cheat codes, Game Genies, or save states if playing on an emulator. Also, we will only be using NTSC systems for the contests. The use of PAL systems will not be allowed. Good luck everyone and have fun
So here's how I did:
Glass Joe
Von Kaiser
Don Flamenco (Major)
King Hippo
Piston Honda (World)
So,my total time ended up being 21:38.23 after NOT being able to beat Super Macho Man. Goddamn, there's something about his timing that is just different.
I guess we'll see where that lands me in the leaderboards.
