Sega Saturn · 1980
About this game
Featuring heavyweight champion George Foreman, this is a boxing simulation where players, taking the role of Foreman, go through a series of twelve rounds against different boxers to win the championship title belt.
Played from an third-person perspective using a view from right over the shoulders over the boxer, players can move left and right to dodge incoming punches, block and throw left and right punches.

The standard punch is a cross, but by holding the Up-key pressed, jabs can also be thrown.
By avoiding punches and hitting them, a superpunch often becomes available, inflicting much more damage.
A fight consists of a maximum of three rounds of three minutes each.
When a boxer is knocked down four times, the match is over (technical knock-out).
The same happens when a boxer goes down three times in a single round (regular knock-out).
When down, players need to press both punch buttons in rapid succession to get back to their feet.
The screen shows an energy meter drained when punches are received.
After being knocked down and during intermissions, some energy is restored.
All versions, except for the Game Boy, can be played with two players.
A password system is used to save the progress.
About Sega Saturn
The Sega Saturn (1994/1995) struggled commercially against the PlayStation despite strong 2D capabilities and a library beloved by shoot-'em-up and RPG fans. Its relatively low sales translated directly into low print runs for many games, making the Saturn one of the more expensive retro platforms to collect completely — several titles now sell for hundreds of euros in good condition.
Gamevaro tracks Boxing (1980) for Sega Saturn with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Boxing (1980) to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This SAT release dates back to 1980.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Boxing (1980), suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Sega Saturn titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
