Game History
Little Mac progresses through various boxing circuits, using limited moves like jabs, body blows, and an uppercut that requires earning a star. The player manages Mac's heart meter, which affects his stamina and ability to attack. The game features special win conditions such as knockout, technical knockout, or decision based on points. Various strategies, including dodging and counter-punching, are vital for victory. Losing to a ranked opponent allows a rematch, but losing a Title Bout results in ranking demotion. A third loss ends the game, except against the final opponent, where losing results in a game over.
