Description: Another example of the final product differing from what was initially advertised. The first Mattel catalog depicted a boxing game in which the characters were relatively small in a large ring. The final product used characters that covered 70% of the entire screen and looked very "blocky".

Santulli Slant: It says on the package that this is a boxing game, and it says it on the instructions, overlays, cartridge label... and yes, it even says it on the screen for a moment. But when I plug this game in, I see two colored amoebas flailing about. Every so often, one of the amoebas flattens out, and sometimes the other amoeba stretches real high when this happens. Is Boxing so much different on the west coast? [Gr: 1, So: 3, Ga: 3, Ov: 2]
