Redditor unearths Easter egg in 'Mike Tyson's Punch-Out' 30 years later

Children born in the 1980s, listen up.

Remember "Mike Tyson's Punch-Out" on the orginal Nintendo Entertainment System. Remember how each opponent got increasingly more difficult to defeat as you traversed your way through the rankings as "Little Mac."

Opportunities to land a blow, be it a simple jab or a power punch, were fewer and farther between as you worked your way up to the ultimate boss—Iron Mike himself. It's been 29 years since it first came out, but gamers are still fascinated by the title. So much so that a Redditor recently unearthed an Easter egg, a visual clue, that tips you off as to when to throw a knockout punch against two of the games tougher foes, Piston Honda and Bald Bull.
