I'm not trying to be "PI" or edgy, but I really don't get where the idea of Punch Out being racist came from. Stereotype =/= racist, most Punch Out characters' stereotypical traits are shown to be positive in battle, for example: Don Flamenco's dancing skills let him dodge a punch, Great Tiger uses his magic for unpredictable attacks, e.t.c. - there's no blackface or conical hats (you can play Pro Wrestling for that, now THAT'S a problematic Nintendo game), it's more just a loving jab to other cultures, like siblings mocking one another.
truth be told I'd love to see a British character in a future Punch Out game, as a Brit myself I love the stereotype of Brits as polite tea-lovers who don't care for dental hygiene. (That last part is very true BTW. British teeth are just as horrible IRL as they are on the Simpsons)

It's kind of like going from 2003 Turtles to Rise of the TMNT, but with even busier visuals. Seriously, it's difficult to follow the action in the new Battletoads. At least people liked the animation in RoTTMNT, so I'm honestly not sure if that would be enough here.
