Mike Tyson Main Event hits iOS [video]

Gaming

You’re sitting on the shag carpet in your parents’ living room, it’s 1987. You’re wearing Bugle Boy jeans, legs crossed, eyes unblinking. The lights in your LA Gear shoes have stopped flickering and your Gushers have long since melted into the long, fibrous strands of the flooring. The only light in the room is your 19-inch, CRT TV projecting Mike Tyson’s Punch Out, as you enter hour eight trying to take down Mike Tyson with Little Mac. Snap out of it. Fast forward 24 years. You’re approaching your 30′s, you’ve upgraded to Levis, and Mike Tyson Main Event has launched for iOS devices. The best part? It’s free. The rehashed NES and arcade classic lets you take on boxers from around the world as you earn RockCash and build your status among the boxing elite. In the main event, you’ll face Mike Tyson all over again. Are you ready? Hit the jump for a video featuring Iron Mike himself and the iTunes download link.
