The player stars as Joe Yabuki, an aspiring boxer, as he goes from an unknown kid from the rough side of town to a boxing champion. The game follows the traditional beat 'em up format, with some portions taking place inside a boxing ring and others taking place in the back alleyways, as Joe trains, fights thugs, and then fights in the boxing ring.

In Japan, Game Machine listed Legend of Success Joe on their August 15, 1991 issue as being the tenth-most successful table arcade unit of the month, outperforming titles such as Hat Trick Hero.[1] It received negative reviews and is widely considered one of the worst games for the Neo Geo, with common complaints being poor controls, graphics and animation on a system that was touted as not having these problems.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
