Rat boss boxing stage bug

[Kim Kil Whan]

At the beginning of the boxing stage, i enetered menu to see the control again and somehow i wasn't able to get out of my current item status and when i got out from the menu THE BOX ASKS ME IF I WANT TO SAVE CHANGES KEPT FLOATING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SCREEN, BLOCKING MY SIGHT FROM SEEING WHAT RESOURCEFUL RAT IS DOING and i lost. For a low level player like me, it is really rare chance to reach the boxing stage and i am truly disappointed. I really love this game, and i don't even going to mention bugs on the long way to the rat's den, riding mine cart. But what i experienced today actually interfered the game. And it should be fixed.

I've just had a similar problem.

Some background: I'm using an XBox controller, and I use them so infrequently in-game that I can't readily distinguish the icon for the START button from the one for the BACK button. So when I got to the Rat Punchout fight and tried to pull up the controls menu (START) to check them, I pulled up the Ammonomicon (BACK) by mistake. Quickly hitting the START button in a panic I somehow wound up in two menus simultaneously: the inactive "Commit Changes?" dialog box on the top layer, and the standard options menu active but not visible on a layer underneath. I usually get out of the options menu with the cancel button (set to B), but it appears to be locked. All I can do is cycle through options menus, but never escape them. Super salty I'm going to have to forcequit the game :/

Yeah, exact same thing just happened to me on the PS4. I forgot the controls, and the rat just starts wailing on you without reminding you how to play. The game points out "Hit the grey rectangle button for controls" so I tried hitting the R1 button, Options button, and the touchpad. The rat was covered by the "Commit Changes?" box for the entire fight and I could not make the box go away.

Ideally the game would tell you which button to press, (the PS4 has many buttons which are just grey rectangles, so telling the player to hit the grey rectangle does not mean much.) Or ideally the "Commit Changes?" dialog wouldn't randomly appear, or wouldn't stay up for the duration of the fight.
