10 Surprise Final Video Game Bosses That Came Out Of Nowhere

No one really knew what to expect from this long awaited sequel to Nintendo's classic Punch-Out franchise when it first hit the shelves, but whatever was expected, Donkey Kong being the true final boss of the game likely wasn't on that list.

Punch-Out Wii's roster is about what you'd expect up until this moment, with the kinds of weirdos and national caricatures that's always given this otherwise typical boxing game franchise its identity. But if you fulfill certain requirements before the final boss, you can fight the ultimate challenge the game has to offer: Donkey Kong sporting a pair of bright red boxing gloves.

Now, you'd think this fight would be over fairly quickly, since gorillas are typically quite a bit stronger than your average sad squishy human. And sure enough, this fight can be over for you fast if you aren't prepared, as Donkey Kong hits hard and fast, with very quick, subtle tells of which way he's going to attack, often leaving you mere seconds to get Little Mac out of the way.
