    Bit of a nitpick: I wouldn't call any of the graphics in this game "pixel art", since it doesn't seem like they were created pixel-by-pixel, but rather by shrinking down graphics drawn with a brush in Photoshop or Flash or something.

    Hah! Killa Gorilla, an obvious homage to T&C Surf Design’s Thrilla Gorilla. My cousin would use him and I would use the guy with the Tiki mask. We went so far with it that I made my own Tiki mask out of a pizza box and set up an obstacle course for my skateboard. I used to love that game. There were 2 other characters too...I think one was a bipedal cat and the other was a guy with sunglasses.

    I saw a copy of this game at Wal-Mart a few years ago and I was ready to get it but the store literally wouldn't sell it to me because it somehow had been forgotten about and had no price in their system attached to it. I wasn't going to pay an over-inflated price for it but either way I was disappointed. I've always loved the Punch Out series with Super Punch Out being my favourite by far and this is a game I knew about when it was released but that was the only time I saw it anywhere.
    There have been plenty of times I saw a game but didn't grab it when I had the chance for whatever reason only to never see it again or for a jacked up "collectible" price, but it wouldn't surprise me if someone who worked at Wal-Mart just took it for free eventually.
