Super Punch-Out!! - Speedrun performed at AGDQ 2016

This run was done on January 7th 2016, at about 2PM in the afternoon.
For this GDQ, I submitted 2 runs, which were this run right here for Super Punch Out, and my 2nd ever blindfolded run, which was for Mike Tyson's Punch Out, but this time it was a race against sinister1. With that being considered, I wasn't too nervous for this run at all, which ends up in me making a handful of uncharacteristic mistakes here and there.
I had also asked GDQ staff on if there was any possibility in doing the Super Punch Out run before the blindfolded Mike Tyson's Punch Out run, since I figured they would inherently choose that order since that's how the games came out chronologically. I requested that mainly because I wanted to get this run out of the way immediately, because I knew that after the MTPO run, my nerves would be completely fried and it would poorly affect this run if it were after.
This was also the first time that I had attended a GDQ where the tech setup for runners required headphones, and it definitely shows, with me having to take them off to hear what the tech staff was saying at the start, and with a handful of miscommunications and bits of confusion here and there, lol.
I didn't really have strict standards for this run or anything. This was probably the most laid back run of anything I had done at a Games Done Quick event up to this point. The one thing I wanted to try to get was a Nick KO, just because to me, if I could land that, I felt like any other silly mistakes would be more or less forgivable to some extent, because reacting to those counters with 100,000+ people watching you on stream, and a crowd of people behind you, makes for a pretty intense environment for ensuring the KO on the final fight of the game.
Anyways, thanks for watching!

I still think the greatest moment you’ve had in this game was the blindfolded run with “I think I just accidentally hit a frame-perfect counter.”

[@ventuskitsune4257]

It wasn't even "I think" :P.

Thank you Zallard, I was having problems against our dude Sandman and now I could defeat him.

I first played this game in 1995 and liked it immediately, since it was far more like the arcade versions than MTPO was. My only complaint was that your gloves don't stay in the position you put them in like in the arcade versions, but rather, they always default to "down" like in MTPO. However, at least your gloves automatically block in SNES SPO based on whatever position they're in (like the arcade), rather than the counterintuitive action of having to pull down to block high, and having to refresh the input for each additional punch you want to block, in MTPO.
For a long time I've thought about putting SNES SPO into a classic Nintendo arcade cabinet. I already have an empty Popeye cabinet in my shed that would be perfect for it, since that's a horizontal monitor cabinet. I also have several arcade PO joysticks, a couple extra arcade big blue KO punch buttons, 3 extra Nintendo/Sanyo 20EZ arcade monitors, and an extra SNES with a busted shell that works perfectly. The fact that the SNES can natively output a ~15 kHz RGBHV signal makes the hookup to an arcade monitor easy.
I have extra arcade PO control panels too, but I don't know if one could be made to fit into a Popeye cabinet. One of them has a bunch of extra button holes in it from some previous conversion to "Time Killers," so I wouldn't mind modifying that one to make it fit a Popeye cabinet. Alternatively, an old beat-up VS. UniSystem control panel could be used, since those were made to fit classic single-monitor Nintendo cabinets to begin with, and since they're steel rather than wood, they'll accept a Punch-Out joystick as-is. I would just need to fill in the existing button holes and make new ones for the two punch buttons and KO button.

May I ask why you're uplaoding this in 2021 and not 2016?
Edit: Wait a minute. This is on the gdq channel and I've seen it before. So why am I seeing this on your channel now?

[@zallard1]

You're seeing it now because I uploaded it recently. I've been slowly archiving my marathon appearances on my youtube channel so they're all preserved and in one place.

[@zallard1]

@@ZoofyZoof I mean, I talk about doing this run for GDQ in 2016 in the description, so it was probably when I originally did this run, or from GDQ's channel. I've also been uploading several marathon runs from the past gradually so they're all in one spot and preserved.

@@zallard1 That sure makes sense, not lying, but tbh when you upload these I honestly expect something new and every time it's something I've already seen I get sad

@@ZoofyZoof Not everyone who follows me has seen all my marathon runs, so for a good deal of the newer subscribers I have, this is new to them. I'm pretty sure I'll get to marathon runs you haven't seen as well, since I've done a decent amount of them that weren't at GDQ's.
