Alright, so Muhammad Ali's Boxing on Game Boy is exactly what it sounds like—you get to throw hands as The Greatest himself. The pixelated Ali bobs and weaves like the real deal, and the controls are simple enough: jab, hook, dodge, and try not to eat too many punches. The opponents start off easy, but by the third fight, you’ll be sweating those tiny Game Boy buttons.
What’s cool is how they nailed Ali’s float-like-a-butterfly style—dodging feels smooth, and landing a knockout punch has that satisfying *thwack* sound. The sprites are chunky but full of charm, and the crowd cheers (well, as much as a Game Boy can cheer) when you land a big hit. Just don’t expect deep strategy—this is pure arcade boxing, where reflexes matter more than footwork.
If you’ve got nostalgia for old-school sports games, this one’s a solid round in the ring. Just don’t blame me when you lose to pixel Joe Frazier for the fifth time.
