* UnexpectedGameplayChange: The final boss fight (in the bad ending) is a 2D side-scrolling punch-out in which you need to punch your opponent off the other side of the stage, a significant shift from the game's 2 earlier melee boss fights which utilized the game's standard combat engine. The good ending has no boss fight.
