Here's some cool stuff you can do with Title Defense Mr Sandman to make a very intimidating fight turn into nothing more than child's play. I hope you enjoy!
Imagine how creepy this would be irl. A guy just absolutely destroying the world champion, dodging every move perfectly, then just deciding not to end the fight until later
It would be even worse because said world champ would be taller and heavier but Mac would dance around them and land hits that will send someone flying.
I'm imagining a boss like this now. You just beat the Champion and finished off DK, then you encounter a new intro. Some guy in a dark room, analyzing every one of Mac's victories, with a background of a homemade ring and a training bot. You can see some facial features in the shadows, and there's something....familiar. Mac enters the ring and then gasps at the newcomer. This guy looks almost like Mac, *very* eerily so. Same city of origin, same height, and weighs a bit more, and if it weren't for one letter, his name would be exactly the same. He enters the ring with a maniacal grin. He'll dodge every punch you throw, dodge the Star Punch, and if you try to stall for time by dodging repeatedly, he'll hit you for chip damage by having his punches hit you on the way back from your dodge. If you get to round 2, he'll match your punches down to the frame of input and will now sucker punch you after dodging star punches, and by round 3 his punches are matching yours but the game reads them as 3 frames faster. Also by this point, he will use his own Star Punch (with the strength and triple the speed of one of your own 3 Star Punches, but without the dramatic slowdown yours has) immediately after dodging yours for an OHKO if you try anything less than 3 stars (a 3 Star punch will result in a dodge instead). Trying to use the chocolate bar between rounds just means he'll double his speed for the rest of the match to try to take you out even faster. If you just stand there he'll just stare you down. He won't taunt, his moves have no tells (not that it would matter much since he'll counter your moves anyways), won't taunt between rounds, and just glare at the camera. It's not a glare like Mr. Sandman, or Bald Bull, or Aran Ryan. This is the glare of a man whose held a grudge and will not stop until you're defeated. But then it hits you, he's not angry at Mac...he's angry at *YOU* He's mad for you trivializing any fight you came across. Face it, regardless of if you're a speedrunner, or a longtime fan, you want a *challenge.* One that makes you feel like you've earned one HELL of a victory, one that's not pattern memorization. Well if you ask for a challenge...Mack will give you a challenge. (TLDR version, it's basically a clone of Little Mac who counters or dodges your every move and reads your inputs to suckerpunch you. He's the final boss for the people who said the game wasn't tough enough.)
@@siscokidder I feel like it’d be a good replacement for the having to get up from almost being knocked out, that just takes rng, and is just tedious instead of difficult or interesting like other challenges
Personally my favorite part is always his dream related puns. They genuinely hit that sweet spot between a silly gimmick and sounding like actual threats. That " 'ey, Mac, Baby. Brush your teeth... *It's bed time* ." Just sounds awesome.
love how sandman means it in a patronising way, but when doc says it it's affectionate. shows how a slight change in tone completely changes what the characters meant lol
This would be the most humiliating fight in history of this was real. Being beaten by someone far below your weight class who doesn't even meet the age requirement who then proceeds to taught you mid match as you can't land what's seemingly a strike so fast that you could miss it in the blink of an eye.
@@nadjasund91 Its extremely subtle, but if you wear headphones you can hear a sound that plays when an error pops up in Windows. As I was watching this on my computer, I thought something broke, but nothing did I thought I was going crazy
This video showcases a lot of possibilities and unseen animations in this fight not shown anywhere else on UA-cam. Thank you for semi-exhaustively exploring it as if it was full of secrets like Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear series. I'm looking forward to be able to watch more content like this!
The fact that Mr. Sandman always get up in time for every knockdown (up to 6, two per round and there are three rounds), tells you so well that he is just too pissed off and angry to give up, he really want that title back. The fact he will get up at the first knockdown early and FULLY recover his healthbar further emphasises it. Though on second knockdown onwards in this video, he gets up late from each later knockdown and only recover around 25% of his health (he also only get up at the count 9 after the the "first" down in the second round) What a deserving way to describe the "improved, "revenge" version of the final boss Seems like you need to exploit a certain weakness for an instant KO if you don't want to win by TKO or decision, but where? Maybe these blinking rapid uppercuts give a hint...
So if you let him recover from the Rage uppercut exhaustion, THEN stun him, he doesn't cover his face? That's such an amazing detail! I think they just really want you to finish him using a punch to the face.
I think the coolest way to do the fight is like this: Make the match go until round 3 with Mac and Sandman knocking each other down a few times in round 1 and 2, in round 3, Mac and Sandman both have 2 downs. Sandman knocks Mac out a 3rd time since Mac while fighting seriously is still a little cocky (he’s reveling with the crowd and his status as champion in the intro) only for Mac to go into last stand mode. Sandman does his rage uppercuts with Mac dodging all of em, when Sandman’s tired Mac unleashes a fury of punches to Sandman’s face until he goes down. Don’t even finish him off with a star punch make it as long as possible for Sandman. Mac wins the fight with the ko animation following the last blow. It was the hardest fight for Mac thus far but he earned this victory. He had to truly want to keep his title and defy all odds in the final round to win. Plus it looks like a cool boxing movie scene if you play this fight that way
Okay I always knew about the rage uppercut exhaustion, but never knew that he doesnt cover his face afterwards. I’m still so amazed by Next Level Games’ attention to detail, lets hope we get a new Punch-Out announced someday
They were definitely trying to give you a nice clean finish by not only offering you a chance to hit him in the face but also give you three stars, despite needing neither of those things to win at that point
Mr. Sandman is a stand in for Mike Tyson; right down to the look, the winks, and even the fact that in Mike Tyson's punch out his match was called the "Dream Fight" and Mr. Sandman's theme is about putting you to sleep/knocking you out/going to dream land. Even his wink flurry ending in exhaustion is a reference to some Mike Tyson trivia that he would go all out in the first round to get a knock out because he didn't believe he had the stamina to stay going for many rounds in a row.
@@funnymannotfunny three actually, he's an OG from the first 1984 Punch Out arcade game, along Glass Joe and Bald Bull (it is claimed Bald Bull was the very first boxer they designed, like how Rhydon is the first pokemon ever made) Next arcade game before the NES game also gave us VODKA DRUNKENSKI
@@MordecroxI'm mean it's always a back and forth between these two: Arcade: Mr Sandman Super Arcade: Super Macho Man NES: Super Macho Man SNES: Super Macho Man Wii: Mr Sandman
@@00F Nolan414 who im sure youve seen knew about it haha, I think I just don't know because I never played the game without doing the speedrunning strategies, so I never really explored td sandman's exhaustive phase, because we end it immediately by countering his winks
That is commonly assumed with Title Defense Soda Popinski in the PAL version. I have not seen that yet, probably because most people are using the NTSC-U version, or managing to TKO him in Round 1.
I think that's just a TD thing. A good amount of TD fights require over 5 KDs, and it'd make sense for Sandman to eat even MORE than that, since he's the ultimate finale.
Sandman on NES: *"You're lookin' at your nightmares tonight, Mac..."* Sandman on Wii (Normal): almost seems just a bit nerfed, though I never got a chance to play Punch-Out! Wii myself. Sandman on Wii (TD) ((probably)): *"I'm WORSE than your nightmares, Mac baby...!"* This specific Sandman: "please just fucking KO me already jesus christ"
Yeah, contender Sandman on wii wasnt so bad, It took me a couple of tries but theres always a pattern so I knew exactly what to do. I beat him under 1 hour
Man, I LOVED this fight. The hype of seeing the crowd cheer for the former underdog Little Mac from the perspective of the former world champion is so thrilling. The anger as Mr. Sandman sees his opponent to the way Doc helps Mac into the ring is perfect. This was the best way to show a rematch. And the possibility to finish the fight with star punches after he is stunned in the final Dreamland attack is so satisfying.
seeing you take those hits after flawlessly getting stars before first TKO really shows how tight the timings are. you gotta practice a lot to get this down. good job
I love Mr. Sandman. He’s a real no nonsense boxer. He’s the most competent and most deadly. He also looks the coolest. Well I guess most of this applies to Piston Hondo too, but he’s no real threat. He’s not boss material like Mr. Sandman.
Honestly, once you recognize his patterns, Title defense sandman becomes less of a fight of Instinct and becomes something more akin to this, where you can successfully manipulate his patterns easily. It doesn't help that he has a counter-punch that creates an infinite. Soda Popinski TD is harder just because he becomes increasingly harder to telegraph, and is the main cause of frustration for gamers everywhere. Even though it's hard to get stars from sandman's wink attack, it's incredibly easy to telegraph when to dodge, making his rage state a joke. Yeah, if I could, I would redesign him, but as it is, I still think it's a cool final moment for the game, even if it's easier than soda man.
I really love that they made TD Mr. Sandman look and act like Mike Tyson from his fight, I also love that he can get really tired after all those Winkercuts.
If you listen closely at 5:45 when Mr Sandman gets knocked down, you can hear what sounds like what those cradle spinning things sounds like as he falls.
Now I know what AzureBlade49 was talking about when he said about "exhausting Mr.Sandman" and getting easy 3 stars to finish him. This video finally clarifies it for me. Cheers bud!
imagine being this big muscular dude that can tear apart buildings and just a normal 17 year old bullies and taunts you during a boxing match not letting you get tko'd until round 3 when there's 2 seconds left, i would be absolutely furious lol
It caught my eye that Mr.Sandman destroyed the building with his bare hands, but I’m always wondering if it’s the same building Doc Louis was using to train Little Mac, but I could be wrong though
5:35 When my son I nicknamed "Mac" needs to do his nightly hygienic routine so I can see him off to bed. He needs to be fresh and rested for school tomorrow (Its picture day)
After beating sandman myself It’s surprising that he doesn’t stay the stun phase forever Surprised the devs actually thought someone would do that to sandman
Actually, if you get hit by the last one of the 14 wink uppercut during his berserker rage, it's an automatic knockdown, even if you dodged the rest of them
It's probably intended by the developers as to prevent a situation where getting hit ends up with you both tired and subsequently entering a staring contest.
@@peanut211 that was exactly what I was gonna say, It wouldn't be strange that to happen. All the other hits make you take around 1/4 of your health, that one just K.O you. Which is problematic because that means that you were gonna end the fight but you missed the last punch.
@@peanut211 And (As a partially trained boxer) I can give you ANOTHER reason why that is there. You see, If you ever need to defend yourself in a situation where you are taller then the opponent, hitting the temple is good tactic. For you see, the temple is one the least guarded place in your upper body. So if you want to knock somebody around effectively, you do knock the temple.
Mr. Sandman was an amazing boss. He is ironically the most realistic opponent out of all boxers you face. I can totally see him being a real heavyweight champion
if you hit him in the face he blocks it while stunned but if you do it in the gut he will block that von kaiser does the same but he blocks the part where he isn’t hit
Fun fact: Contender Glass Joe and TD Mr. Sandman are the only fighters in Punch Out Wii which have 2 different intro animations, the first one has his characteristic intro and a second one where he doesn't slip off, and Mr. Sandman has his habitual anination and the second one being a recicle of the Contender Mr. Sandman's after he defeated you once.
I haven't gotten here yet (still on Glass Joe 2) but I gotta say that contender Mr .Sand Man was by far my favorite fight in the entire game. None of the punches felt cheap or impossible to dodge, I never got frustrated, and the final hit is perfectly framed. It was an extremely good time. Good job Intelligent Systems!

It caught my eye that Mr.Sandman destroyed the building with his bare hands, but I’m always wondering if it’s the same building Doc Louis was using to train Little Mac, but I could be wrong though

5:35 When my son I nicknamed "Mac" needs to do his nightly hygienic routine so I can see him off to bed. He needs to be fresh and rested for school tomorrow (Its picture day)
these videos always motivate me to go play punch-out and defeat *everybody*
After beating sandman myself
It’s surprising that he doesn’t stay the stun phase forever
Surprised the devs actually thought someone would do that to sandman
7:11 Thank for letting me know Windows10
I will always find it funny how a dude that can literally destroy entire buildings somehow gets beat up by a 17 year old from the Bronx.
"Do you think it's his turn? I don't think it's his turn."
"His turn to get knocked down."
1:06
Mr. Sandman: "My turn!"
Little Mac: "Not on your life, sport."
I never knew that you could stun him like that 7:44
6:21 wait how did that one shot you
I don't really know. I think its because he gets stronger as he gets more enraged.
Actually, if you get hit by the last one of the 14 wink uppercut during his berserker rage, it's an automatic knockdown, even if you dodged the rest of them
It's probably intended by the developers as to prevent a situation where getting hit ends up with you both tired and subsequently entering a staring contest.
@@peanut211 that was exactly what I was gonna say, It wouldn't be strange that to happen.
All the other hits make you take around 1/4 of your health, that one just K.O you.
Which is problematic because that means that you were gonna end the fight but you missed the last punch.
@@peanut211 And (As a partially trained boxer) I can give you ANOTHER reason why that is there.
You see, If you ever need to defend yourself in a situation where you are taller then the opponent, hitting the temple is good tactic. For you see, the temple is one the least guarded place in your upper body.
So if you want to knock somebody around effectively, you do knock the temple.
Mac vs Sandman but it's Aran Ryan instead of Mac
You go-

Now i see why mr sandman has a reason to be angry
Carl Weezer has had enough and decides to bully the world champion (colorized 2009)
if you stare death in the face and they look tired, you've already won
his reverse stun animation makes it look like he's cold

If this is truthful, please get a therapist.

Holy shit, mr sandman saying dreamland while the heart is beating in the background is menacing as fuck
A David vs Goliath only David is a trained assassin.
contrary to popular belief TD bald bull is the only fighter you HAVE to defeat using a star punch
Super fun to bully former champs
Mr. Sandman was an amazing boss. He is ironically the most realistic opponent out of all boxers you face. I can totally see him being a real heavyweight champion
I like how if you multiply his wins to match yours, he still has a better record than you
Why am I watching punch out videos? And why am I enjoying them so much?
How could you DO THIS????? SO EVIL?????? I can't even land a punch on the guy...
_Very interesting deja vu here... But I wouldn't say evil, more so the whole "I told you so" kind of enemy I fought one time._
Pattern recognition
hilarious and unique. You've earned a sub!
1:31 and it all goes downhill…
It looks like it is. But Sandman haven't seen the further truth yet.
Considering how much he yaps about bedtime.
He shouldn’t be called Mr. Sandman
He should be called Mr. Bedman
He's called Mr. Sandman because he "puts" his enemies to "sleep" like the mythical sandman, but with punches instead of magical dust. XD
The Sisyphus Experience In A Nutshell
if you hit him in the face he blocks it while stunned
but if you do it in the gut he will block that
von kaiser does the same but he blocks the part where he isn’t hit
2:44 *why do they both say mac baby*
Because Sandman and Doc have the same voice actor.
Lore accurate little mac
is there anyone here who thinks mr sandman would be a great father? i mean 3:03
Honestly, despite his anger issues, yeah
4:18 Minecraft pig sound lol
Looks like he squeaks everytime he falls to the ground
Fun fact: Contender Glass Joe and TD Mr. Sandman are the only fighters in Punch Out Wii which have 2 different intro animations, the first one has his characteristic intro and a second one where he doesn't slip off, and Mr. Sandman has his habitual anination and the second one being a recicle of the Contender Mr. Sandman's after he defeated you once.
I like how the moveset is similar to mike Tyson's in the NES version
"Confronting your nightmares"
4:54 i havent noticed that could happen
I’d be mad too if I was 284 pounds and somehow lost to the kid who’s 107.
The day Sandman became Sadman
The day sandman became sand
I haven't gotten here yet (still on Glass Joe 2) but I gotta say that contender Mr .Sand Man was by far my favorite fight in the entire game. None of the punches felt cheap or impossible to dodge, I never got frustrated, and the final hit is perfectly framed. It was an extremely good time. Good job Intelligent Systems!
4:03 Alright that's just downright rude.
I feel like this video is one of the only to show sandman blocking his gut in a stun.
I can watch this all the time and never even get bored
0:34
Dude you're the one that lost to him
As a kid, I always heard "Mach Turnip" instead of "my turn" for some reason
Might be my most fav video on punch out (wii)
I don't think it's his turn.
