A Skymall catalog is selling a framed screen shot of Mike Tyson's Punch Out. Tyson himself signed the picture.
"'Mike Tyson's Punch Out' was a cult classic video game back in the 80s that millions of fans identify with to this day," the ad states.
"This reprint of Iron Mike is hand signed by Tyson, framed in cherry wood, and comes with a Steiner Sports Certificate of Authenticity."
The image depicts the famous boxer gloating at your expense, which is something that happens often in that game: His virtual counterpart is considered one of the most challenging bosses in video game history.
Watch Mojo agreed with this, and ranked him number one on their "Top 10 Hardest Boss Fights in Video Games" list.
"(Mike Tyson's) virtual avatar has put more fear into the hearts of gamers than any other boss in history," Watch Mojo stated.
"He is freakishly huge, unbelievably fast, and generally not the sort of guy you'd want to run into in a dark alley."
While a cult classic, the game has experienced a resurgence in recent years: Little Mac, the protagonist of Punch Out, is a playable character in Super Smash Bros for 3DS and Super Smash Bros for Wii U.
If you are a fan of classic gaming and want to be reminded of all your failures against one of the greatest boxers to ever walk the planet, this picture may be the right purchase for you.
