Possibly another for Soda Popinski is that in his major circuit fight is that his uniform significantly has the color red which could be twisted into a reference to the USSR
I really appreciate Glass Joe in this. The stereotype most associated with the french is cowardice, but Glass Joe is anything but a coward. He bravely and proudly fights despite losing 99 times with only 1 win. He's honestly inspiring to me. Keep on fighting Glass Joe.
His name was changed mainly due to Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" War on Drugs campaign back in the 80s. Nintendo was afraid of appearing to promote alcoholism but kept his classic lines like "I can't drive, so I'll walk all over you" and "I drink to prepare for a fight. Tonight I am very prepared" in the NES version
Don't forget that the manga Piston Hondo is reading is specifically a page from Sailor Moon, which the developers snuck in as a joke but did NOT get permission for, and resulted in some very nasty reactions from the manga's rights holder.

There is ONE stereotype from Mr. Sandman. Note his aggressive demeanor, as well as his disregard for others' property. This is a common stereotype of his people; Philadelphians.
There's also one notable stereotype that was missed. Mr. Sandman is strongly associated with the number 13, which is often depicted as a bad luck number.

You neglected to address a couple of stereotypes revolving around Don Flamenco and his Spanish heritage. His given name “Don” is the an honorific prefix that is used to show respect to a man in Spanish, while his surname is based on the flamenco, the traditional Spanish dance. And the song used for his intro cutscenes is taken from the opera Carmen, which is set in southern Spain.

right? theyre done in a respectful, light hearted manner. punch out has so much cultural appreciation alongside these stereotypes, like hiring voice actors from the boxer’s countries to make the boxers speak their native language. as someone who’s turkish. it fills me with so much joy to see bald bull speak turkish and be able to understand him.
I thought about that but wasn't sure if it was a Russian stereotype specifically. I heard that the Soviet Union was one of the first countries to use doping in professional sports, though.
That's more true for the title defense bout, where Soda Popinski ditches his typical soda for power-enhancing elixirs. In fact, those very elixirs can even be a reference to steroids, which are illegal in just about every sport in the world.
The reddish skin for Soda Popsniki is also a possible reference to the term "pinko" used to describe Russian Communists during the cold War For Bald Bull he also is seen in a bathhouse in his intro, and Turkey does have many stylish bathhouses
Also, the manga the Japanese guy was holding is actually a Sailor Moon manga, and I think that led to some legal issues for the game. Also, the reason why there's a French and Canadian guy is because the team for Punch-out is in Canada whose official languages are English and French. Also, the first Punch-out game for the NES, featured Soda Popinski as Vodka Drunkinski. But in Super Punch-out and onward, his name was changed to avoid further controversy, since alcohol in games is often frowned upon. Despite that, Soda Popinski does get pissy after drinking soda, could be alcoholic soda.
Fun Fact: The music heard in Piston Hondo's introduction in 3:30 is a traditional folk song that dates back to the Edo Period with it's title being, "Sakura Sakura"
@@giantpinkcatno, aladin is very much a middle eastern movie. Great Tiger is very much a middle eastern character. I have no clue why he's labled indian here
Not to mention it was made in Canada, and the Canadian representative, while not having the most, does have some of the most glaring (chugging maple syrup in the corner, being friends with a bear, saying "eh", etc)
You didn’t mention Don Flamenco’s theme also being stereotypical: it’s the theme from Carmen, a classic opera which depicts a Spanish setting (despite the composer being French). I believe Piston Hondo’s theme is also based on a Japanese folk tune but do not have the knowledge to verify.
There are Jamaican and British boxers in Super Punch-Out. One is just a Bob Marley expy and the other is a narcissistic rich British kid going to some cushy Ivy-leauge school as an athlete. When he gets mad, his speech slips from the Queen's English to working class Londoner slang with a transcribed Cockney accent. This is kind of interesting, since it implies that he, like a lot of British people, actually speaks with that accent naturally and puts on his more "proper" mannerisms in order to fit in with British society.
I bet for those you've mentioned, Brazilian would be stereotyped as a footballer, a Texan would be a guy in his 50s with a moustache and a cowboy hat, and an Australian wearing an Australian hat and drinking beer. I couldn't think of one for Las Vegas.

5:00 He also wears pants made from white tiger fur, a reference to India being the home of white tigers ( in fact it is not a separate species, but a mutation that is passed on by inheritance )
Never heard this game, but its been in my reccomended, some extra stuff i noticed: German -its cool that hes portrayed as millitaristic/imperial Prussian instead of the boring pseudo-Bavarian -i think he says he is a Battle machine -kaiser mustache Indian -he says he is "Sher Singh" which means Lion Lion (farsi word+ sanskrit word) which is both ridiculous and cool -had no idea Mehndi made yhe them -glad this one is more controlled and respectable than usual indian stereotypes.
Some other stereotypes I saw for Piston Hondo. Most obvious that its almost not worth mentioning, his name was originally Piston Honda as in the Japanese brand of cars. Japan has been in the top 3 in auto manufacturing since the 60's. The background music in his cutscene is the song Sakura Sakura, a traditional song that is considered very stereotypical. Not sure if this is really a stereotype but his hachimaki (headband) says "ichiban" which means number 1. I've seen this exact hachimaki in a lot of tourist places in Japan and even some Japanese grocery stores in the US.
I’m so surprised this video is only 3 days old, is great to still see videos about this already decade-old game, hopefully, Nintendo realizes, just like they did with other games recently, and makes a new Punch-out game.
In particular with Piston Hondo's fight, when he bows to Little Mac in the actual fight, he looks up at him. This is done as a sly form of disrespect to the person you are bowing to, as you're not normally supposed to look at the person when you bow out of respect.
Another thing that you forgot to mention in the spanish stereotypes is that in Don Flamenco's theme we can hear a typical percussion spanish instrument named "Castañuelas"
While Mr. Sandman does share some charactaristics from Mike Tyson from the original Mike Tyson's Punchout!!, He is mostly based off of Muhammad Ali. But oddly also has a lot of references to the number 13.
Not sure if this would really be considered, but somewhat similarly to Aran Ryan having a lot of 7s going around him, Piston Hond(a/o) has a focus number of 4, which is one of Japan's unlucky numbers, with one of the ways to say it (Shi) being similar to their word for death. (The other big unlucky number being 9, with it also being similarly spoken as something unpleasant, but that's not as prominent.)
Wait... this gave me an idea for a new Punch Out challenge. Play through Contender mode (Glass Joe through Mr. Sandman), but every time a national stereotype appears, take a shot of your favorite alcoholic beverage. Hopefully you don't become too drunk to be unable to beat Mr. Sandman...
They should have added the British and have the guy wear a top hat, drinking tea, wearing a singular eye lens glasses and have him say his lines in the most heavily English accent you have heard
4:27 - Wait. The Daler Mehndi references (the spirits thing in his Title Defense rematch, for example) weren't just intentional, but Daler Mehndi, _himself,_ contributed to Great Tiger's revisions and presentation?! Whoa…
Y'forgot Don Flamenco's name's a reference to 2 things, "Don" is kind of a Spanish equivalent to the word "Sir" or "Mister" only used in Spain to depict somebody's identity, more often than not accompanied by somethin' that represents what that person's known for, the female for the word bein' "Doña" (not "Dona", never mix up N and Ñ), it can also be used as a respectful or cordial manner so refear to somebody, ussually a higher-up or an elder, and "Flamenco" bein' our regional dancestyle by default, which he performs in 'is cinematics and fight quite often, even stryking poses typical from that dancestyle. Those 2 together coul' depict Don Flamenco's talented at said dance or that he ussually flirts with it and that's so good at it he's known for so 🇪🇸

The Soviets were the first to use steroids in their competitions in the 1950s
3:43 Party Crashers when roasting Brent:
Nice one.
"This is literally your home, bro, I don't wanna hear it"
"Do you have squirrels in Canada?"
"This is how you get to school"
Hell yeah
Also kind of fits because brent is Canadian
(Also nick is not Canadian stop complaining)
LESGOOOO PARTY CRASHERS NATION‼️‼️‼️‼️
PARTY CRASHER REFERENCE LETS GOOO 🗣🗣
😂 the Indian guy shaking his head is the absolute most hilarious I didn’t expect them to all in on that aspect
So... Absolutely nothing about how fruity Disco Kid is?
Modern stereotype.😂
Northern Americans.
I guess it's not a stereotype if it's common.
Can't risk it on UA-cam... But 20 years ago, the American would've been depicted as a cooler and more laid-back version of the German stereotype lol
Nah, but why is Glass Joe looking fine in that turtle neck dawg?
Also, Piston Hondo's fight has a few references to the number 4, which is considered unlucky in Japanese culture.
5:00 He also wears pants made from white tiger fur, a reference to India being the home of white tigers ( in fact it is not a separate species, but a mutation that is passed on by inheritance )
5:56 looks more like a chestnut color than red..
But in his intros aran ryan's hair is red
0:30 IT'S RAINING CROISSANTS

2:20 is it offensive that I laughed at that fact?
Nah it’s true asf here in Hawaii 😂 polynesians here big af
Why? Is true lol
@@Bricks701Spam is the reason
Morbidly obese.
Yes. You're going to hell. Reported, blocked, tweeted about. Reported again. You are disgraceful
Never heard this game, but its been in my reccomended, some extra stuff i noticed:
German
-its cool that hes portrayed as millitaristic/imperial Prussian instead of the boring pseudo-Bavarian
-i think he says he is a Battle machine
-kaiser mustache
Indian
-he says he is "Sher Singh" which means Lion Lion (farsi word+ sanskrit word) which is both ridiculous and cool
-had no idea Mehndi made yhe them
-glad this one is more controlled and respectable than usual indian stereotypes.
3:16 i just realized DK is in the background
How sweet! Donkey Kong is one of Japan's national cartoon mascots
Looks like the devs studied a lot of the culture of each country so they can make accurate jokes lmao
It's the most basic stereotypes that everyone knows....
Spanish stereotypes then: Bullfighting, romantic and vanity.
Spanish stereotypes now: Gaming youtubers and streamers.
And civilwars
the Great Tiger place is named Taj Mahal in India, this place is very famous and holy place for Indian people
Some other stereotypes I saw for Piston Hondo.
Most obvious that its almost not worth mentioning, his name was originally Piston Honda as in the Japanese brand of cars. Japan has been in the top 3 in auto manufacturing since the 60's.
The background music in his cutscene is the song Sakura Sakura, a traditional song that is considered very stereotypical.
Not sure if this is really a stereotype but his hachimaki (headband) says "ichiban" which means number 1. I've seen this exact hachimaki in a lot of tourist places in Japan and even some Japanese grocery stores in the US.
Man, this game just came back out of nowhere
I’m so surprised this video is only 3 days old, is great to still see videos about this already decade-old game, hopefully, Nintendo realizes, just like they did with other games recently, and makes a new Punch-out game.
When the English teacher pauses the movie every so often
So Aran Ryan not only has the most infractions, he also has the most stereotypes.
I honestly had no idea that Donkey Kong was in the audience this entire time
In particular with Piston Hondo's fight, when he bows to Little Mac in the actual fight, he looks up at him. This is done as a sly form of disrespect to the person you are bowing to, as you're not normally supposed to look at the person when you bow out of respect.
Another thing that you forgot to mention in the spanish stereotypes is that in Don Flamenco's theme we can hear a typical percussion spanish instrument named "Castañuelas"
3:13 I just noticed that Donkey Kong is in the crowd. (He’s in the far left)
While Mr. Sandman does share some charactaristics from Mike Tyson from the original Mike Tyson's Punchout!!, He is mostly based off of Muhammad Ali. But oddly also has a lot of references to the number 13.
Its cool how TD sandman is based entirely on the Mike Tyson fight on NES. Fast hard hitting hooks and overheads and the winking.
Ого- они все говорят на своём родном языке? Похвально для игровой студии!
Spain always get away with good stereotypes somehow
Not sure if this would really be considered, but somewhat similarly to Aran Ryan having a lot of 7s going around him, Piston Hond(a/o) has a focus number of 4, which is one of Japan's unlucky numbers, with one of the ways to say it (Shi) being similar to their word for death. (The other big unlucky number being 9, with it also being similarly spoken as something unpleasant, but that's not as prominent.)
Wait... this gave me an idea for a new Punch Out challenge.
Play through Contender mode (Glass Joe through Mr. Sandman), but every time a national stereotype appears, take a shot of your favorite alcoholic beverage. Hopefully you don't become too drunk to be unable to beat Mr. Sandman...
2:13 Truly one of the sickest beats
Despite having so many stereotypes, the Punch Out characters have a lot of personality
5:26
Bullfighting ❌
Bull-flying ✅
They should have added the British and have the guy wear a top hat, drinking tea, wearing a singular eye lens glasses and have him say his lines in the most heavily English accent you have heard
So.. Dudley from Street Fighter?
3:31
The song played is called "Sakura" (trying to use memory) which is another Stereotype.
4:27 - Wait. The Daler Mehndi references (the spirits thing in his Title Defense rematch, for example) weren't just intentional, but Daler Mehndi, _himself,_ contributed to Great Tiger's revisions and presentation?! Whoa…
4:49 the sound of it feels weird yet suitable for him
5:52 it would have been funny if screaming like a madman was an Irish stereotype
Y'forgot Don Flamenco's name's a reference to 2 things, "Don" is kind of a Spanish equivalent to the word "Sir" or "Mister" only used in Spain to depict somebody's identity, more often than not accompanied by somethin' that represents what that person's known for, the female for the word bein' "Doña" (not "Dona", never mix up N and Ñ), it can also be used as a respectful or cordial manner so refear to somebody, ussually a higher-up or an elder, and "Flamenco" bein' our regional dancestyle by default, which he performs in 'is cinematics and fight quite often, even stryking poses typical from that dancestyle. Those 2 together coul' depict Don Flamenco's talented at said dance or that he ussually flirts with it and that's so good at it he's known for so
🇪🇸
I’m French and German, THE FIRST 2! Also Canadian. I was born in Canada and Continue to live in Canada
Cool! I’m Canadian and Turkish, I’m surprised there weren’t more stereotype for Bald Bull
@@e6026 I’ve heard steriotypical Turkish music
5:21 Also, the song used is “Carmen” from Bizet, also referencing bullfighting.
Its actually toreador march
@@martinignaciodoesstuff3995 Freddy fazbear
The Kong one really offended me
Nintendo on Japan: respectful and wise
Nintendo on Canada: fat
The developers were mostly Canadian, so... they now 🤷♂️
i honestly didnt know aran had red hair, i thought he was brown-haired
