Piston hailed from Japan, where he was seen training for his boxing career in some type of temple. He exhibits a number of Japanese stereotypes, babbling random words in Japanese and threatening to give his opponent a "TKO from Tokyo". He also apparently has a camera crew that follows him around. In his appearances, Hondo is known for his trademark rushing attack that is known as the Banzai Rush Attack in the NES game and Hondo Rush in the Wii game. | Piston hailed from Japan, where he was seen training for his boxing career in some type of temple.

− | The musclebound Japanese | + | The musclebound Japanese game first appears in ''Punch-Out!!'' for the NES as the champion of the Minor Circuit and later as the #5 fighter in the World Circuit. However, [[Little Mac]] was able to challenge and defeat him both times. In ''[[Punch-Out!! (Wii)|Punch-Out!!'' for the Wii]], he appears as the ranked #3 challenger in the Major Circuit. He shows courtesy by bowing prior to the match and speaks actual genuine phrases as opposed to the gibberish in the previous game. After being the first time, he returned as the fifth challenger in Title Defense mode. He was shown to undergo rigorous training in which he caught a sword, ate massive amounts of food, ran alongside a bullet train and drank tea. He returned in a new white wardrobe, but was defeated again. |
