His mediocre skills are evident from his initial records in the NES games, showing him to have participated in 99 matches with only 1 KO. In [[Punch-Out!! (Arcade)|the original arcade version]], he was ranked Number 9 in the World Video Boxing Association. He then appeared in [[Punch-Out!! (NES)|both NES versions of ''Punch-Out!!'']], ranked Number 2 in the WVBA's Minor Circuit prior to his defeat at the hands of [[Little Mac]]. In his between-round conversations, he expressed either boredom or fear at the match, including pleading with Little Mac not to hit his jaw and also stating his intentions to retire following the match.

Presumably he followed through with his plans of retirement, as he did not appear in the ring again for a while. He was later mentioned as having trained [[Gabby Jay]] (another native of France) in his own boxing school, who took Joe's place as the bottom rung fighter in ''[[Super Punch-Out!! (Super Nintendo)|Super Punch-Out!!]]''. Even Gabby was able to knock out Glass Joe in a match.

Glass Joe appears in ''[[Punch-Out!! (Wii)|Punch Out!!]]'' (back from retirement?), once again being the first opponent in the Minor Circuit. After his defeat he sees his doctor about returning to the ring; after his physical he is given a helmet and returns to challenge Little Mac, champion of the world, as the first challenger in Title Defense Mode. Because of his headgear, he can only be punched in the midsection or by using a star uppercut to knock off his helmet. Additionally, he uses a variety of fake-outs as well as varying the time he charges up his hooks in order to become a more challenging opponent.

*In the ''[[Portal: Super Smash Bros.|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series, he has appeared as a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]'' and as a Novice Primary [[Spirit]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. His Spirit comes with the added effect of the player fighter starting battles with 30% damage. When fought in a Spirit battle, Glass Joe's Spirit would possess [[Luigi]] and engage the player in a stamina battle. He was shown to have a distracting penchant for taunting.
