I found this somewhat disingenuous because Tyson for years has said he could never get past Glass Joe!

Mike Tyson's tweet was that he BEAT Glass Joe for the first time, so who knows.

I wonder if he made those noises when he was actually fighting?

Might be the 1st time he actually played the game, but not the 1st time he held an NES controller:

Instead of playing Skee ball, he should invest in an NES and do a youtube video of himself fighting himself in game. Would love to see that or a full playthrough. Best boxing series ever.

Dude. He could totally milk it into an hour long show and I'd eat up every last second of it.

He should make a parody of the most recent Rocky Balboa film, instead of a state of the art computer simulation of a fight with him, it should just show clips of him from the NES game. Then he goes for a comeback!

Naw, if he got frustrated he'd bite the corner of his TV off.

He should buy a NES because he needs paractice.
Lots of, actually :)

Anyone else think this may be a staged video? Tyson looks like he is acting and you cannot tell me that when he signed the licensing deal with Nintendo way back when, he did not get a complimentary copy and console. I'm just not buying this.

I've seen a -lot- of adults with next to no game experience act like that when they finally get the hang of a videogame, so I don't think it's entirely staged. Just... overdoing it? I dunno.

He'd never even get up to himself to fight himself in that game. And even if he had help he'd still die within the first minute. But yeah I'd still watch it.
