| '''Little Mac''' is a [[human]] boxer of the World Video Boxing Assoc. (or W.V.B.A.) from the [[New York City|Bronx]], and the protagonist of the [[wikipedia:Punch-Out!!|''Punch-Out!!'' series]]. He has had various crossover encounters with [[Mario]], [[Donkey Kong]] and other characters from the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]], some of which are via semi-regular cameos in the ''Punch-Out!!'' series itself.

| | |
| ==History==
| |
| ===''Punch-Out!!'' series===
| |
| [[File:DK_Punchout.png|thumb|Little Mac fighting Donkey Kong in the Wii version of ''Punch-Out!!''.]]
| |
| The original protagonist of the arcade ''[[wikipedia:Punch-Out!! (arcade game)|Punch-Out!!]]'' and ''[[wikipedia:Super Punch-Out!! (arcade game)|Super Punch-Out!!]]'' titles fought several fighters for the world championship, and was shown as a green haired wireframe model during gameplay. The name "Little Mac" did not appear until ''[[wikipedia:Punch-Out!! (NES)|Punch-Out!!]]'' for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] (also known as ''[[wikipedia:Mike Tyson|Mike Tyson's]] Punch-Out!!''), which also introduced his manager and trainer, Doc Louis. In ''[[wikipedia:Super Punch-Out!!|Super Punch-Out!!]]'' for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]], his design was replaced with an unnamed blond character. In ''[[Punch-Out!! (Wii)|Punch-Out!!]]'' for the [[Wii]], all the playable characters of the series were retroactively considered Little Mac. After fighting through all of his opponents once again, Mac gets tired of the fame and decides to go out in a blaze of glory (dubbed "Mac's Last Stand"), where his condition is three losses until he retires and gives up the belt. In the latest title so far, ''[[wikipedia:Punch-Out!! (Wii)#Doc Louis's Punch-Out!!|Doc Louis's Punch-Out]]'', he spars with Doc.

| |
| [[File:POWario.jpg|thumb|Little Mac standing triumphantly while Mario counts out his opponent in ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves''.]]
| |
| ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'' features a [[microgame]] called "[[Punch-Out!! (WarioWare: Smooth Moves)|Punch-Out!!]]" based on the game of the same name. In it, Mac knocks out his opponent (who changes depending on the difficulty), and the player, as Mario, has to count down the KO. Mac cheers if the count reaches ten in time.

| ====''WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase''====
| |
| [[File:DIYShowcasePunchOut.png|thumb|left|Little Mac dodging his opponent's attacks in ''WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase''.]]
| |
| In the microgame [[Punch-Out!! (WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase)|Punch-Out!!]] in ''[[WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase]]'', Mac, controlled by the player, has to dodge his opponent's attacks. If all of the attacks are dodged, Mac knocks him out, while getting hit results in Mac getting knocked out.

| |
| Little Mac appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as an [[Assist Trophy]]. Once he appears, he punches the enemies in rapid succession while moving quickly around the stage. After a while, he delivers one final blow that launches enemies far before disappearing. He can KO opponents as little as 35% damage. He is invulnerable, though he can still disappear by falling off the stage.

| | |
| Little Mac appears as a new playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]'', having been revealed on February 13, 2014.<ref name="Mac Trailer">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmtrmAvL5aw]</ref> Unlike in ''Brawl'', Little Mac sports his design the Wii version of ''Punch-Out!!''. As expected for a boxer, Little Mac is a close-ranged fighter, with all but one of his moves being some variation of a punch. Although he is among the fastest characters in the game and his ground attacks are powerful, Little Mac is far weaker while in the air, as his attack power drastically decreases. Additionally, Little Mac's jumping and aerial attributes are very poor, as his air speed is only around average, his air acceleration is very low, and he falls quite fast as well. To add to this, Little Mac is also a lightweight, making it easy for fighters to send him flying.
| |
| | |
| Little Mac uniquely has a Power Meter that charges whenever he attacks and is attacked. When the meter is fully charged, it changes his neutral special attack to the powerful KO Uppercut.<ref>[https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAAYUKlKBIZ0uQ]</ref> However, as with his other aerial attacks, his KO Uppercut is drastically weaker when performed in the air.
| |
| | |
| Little Mac's neutral special is the [[Straight Lunge]], which causes him to wind up his arm and then dash forward to perform a powerful straight punch. His side special is the [[Jolt Haymaker]], which is a Superman punch. His up special is the [[Rising Uppercut]], in which he leaps into the air and first attacks with a corkscrewing uppercut and then finishes with a second uppercut with the opposite fist. His down special is the [[Slip Counter]], in which he performs a full crouch stance and immediately counterattacks upon being hit by slipping inside and uppercutting the opponent. Little Mac's [[Final Smash]] transforms him into [[Giga Mac]], increasing his attack power and results in him being immune to flinching, similar to [[Giga Bowser]].
| |
| | |
| Little Mac has a number of alternate costumes that reference the ''Punch-Out!!'' series. Four are from the Wii version of ''Punch-Out!!'', which are based on his World Video Boxing Association (WVBA) Champion attire in Title Defense Mode, his attire in Contender Mode during the World Circuit, his attire during the Major Circuit and his attire when used by player 2 in Head-to-Head Mode. Two are from the NES version of ''Punch-Out!!'', which are based on his signature pink hooded sweatsuit used during training sessions, as well as how he appears after he defeats any opposing boxers. Another is based on the blond protagonist in ''[[wikipedia:Super Punch-Out!!|Super Punch-Out!!]]''. Lastly, Little Mac also has "wireframe" variants of all his alternate costumes, based upon his appearance in the original arcade version of ''Punch-Out!!''; while most remain the same with the exception of Little Mac's body being wireframe and his voice being replaced by 8-bit sound effects, the boxing gloves and sweatsuit's colors are inverted to being green and pink, respectively.
| |
| | |
| The overweight version of Little Mac from ''Captain Rainbow'' also appears as a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''.<ref>https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAAYUKlM9yClbA</ref> If Little Mac wins a match, Doc Louis appears alongside him on the results screen.

| |
| [[File:LittleFatMac.png|thumb|left|Little Mac after gaining weight in ''Captain Rainbow''.]]
| |
| In ''[[Captain Rainbow]]'', Little Mac has been out of work for some time and has become largely obese due to the events of the game. The game's protagonist, Nick, helps him get back into shape. This appearance shows up as a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''.

| | |
| ===''NES Remix 2''===
| |
| In ''[[NES Remix 2]]'', Little Mac makes an appearance in several mini-games based on the original ''Punch-Out!!'' game. They all involve Mac beating various opponents with different restrictions, like knocking out Von Kaiser with an uppercut, blocking Great Tiger's attacks while the screen fades out, or beating a powerful Glass Joe.

At max charge, the launching power of this move is scary!''

| |''Little Mac always puts his best fist forward, especially when you use Straight Lunge! You start by charging, then unleash the punch whenever you press the button again. Charge it to the max and its launching power is formidable! Also, attacks won't make you flinch while you're charging or once you've fully charged the move.

| |''Wait. Is...is that Little Mac from Punch-Out!!? We'd heard he went to Mimin Island to train to become a world champion again, but it looks like he went a few too many rounds in the ring with those island mangoes. If you don't help him get back in shape, we might need to come up with a new name for him...''
| |
| |''Wait a second. This is Little Mac? What happened to the "Little" part?! The star of Punch-Out!! clearly hasn't been keeping up with his training if he's ended up like this! Now that he's moved to Mimin Island, though, all hope is not lost. It's said wishes come true there - hopefully, that includes Mac's wish to get back to his former glory.''

| ====Palutena's Guidance====
| |
| *'''[[Pit]]''': This guy looks ready to fight!
| |
| *'''Viridi''': That's Little Mac. As a boxer, fighting is sort of his thing. No one can match his strength on the ground, but in an aerial battle, he's helpless.
| |
| *'''[[Palutena]]''': So you want to get him in the air, and keep him from landing.
| |
| *'''Viridi''': He has a power meter that, once full, lets him unleash a lethal attack.
| |
| *'''Pit''': He seems tiny, though...
| |
| *'''Viridi''': Maybe that's why he's LITTLE Mac. But even with his small stature, he's triumphed over many heavyweight boxers. Pretty impressive for a puny HUMAN.
| |
| *'''Pit''': Bring it on! The stronger the opponent, the more interesting the fight!
| |
| *'''Viridi''': That's the spirit!
| |
| *'''Pit''': Uh, I can keep using my weapons, right?
| |
| *'''Viridi''': Ugh! Yes...
