the two-screen novelty is a neat idea but I can't imagine it having much real effect beyond using up twice as much electricity and really running the bill at the arcades, since the info could easily be moved around onto one screen as the console sequels would later do. And I played this on an actual cabinet before so I'm not just spewing random ideas.

Outside that the boxers don't have their expressive personalities here and it feels more like you're mashing your way through them than employing any general strategy.

It's an ancestor to a game I love so it still gets a star.
