Punch Out

Punch Out is the boss game in the Sports folder in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!.

Gameplay
There is a boxing ring with two boxers in it. The player controls the one at the bottom, and must defeat their opponent. The only way to do this is to wait for the opponent to attack, then dodge with the control pad. Then, they must press the button to punch, which, if done right, will deplete one point of health from the opponent.

Level one features an opponent about equal to the player, both having three points of health and equal strength.

In level two, the opponent has four points of health. Once he is down to a single point, he'll perform a special move, which can instantly K.O. the player, but can be dodged like a normal attack.

Level three features an opponent with five health points, who is much faster than the other two. Also, this opponent can use the instant K.O. attack at any time. Like the opponent in level two, he always uses the instant K.O attack once he is down to a single point.
