After being assured that there are going to be NES control options, I'm actually getting more interested in trying the motion controls. In celebration of the new game, I just went back and played through Punch-Out!! the other day. I forgot how hard the end is...

I am excited about this game.. The difference between Punch Out and Wii Sports Boxing is that Punch Out opponents all have gimmicks. Wii Sports boxing opponents had no personality or real style to the way they fought. Still, I am prob going to try the motion controls once then move over to real controls.

Right now, its one of the reason why I want a Wii (other than No More Heroes, House of the Dead Overkill, and Mad World). I will get a Wii when that game comes out.

"To come straight to the point, Punch Out!! on Wii isn't as good as the original. It is, in every aspect, far and away a much better game..."

Well the people over at 1up loved it...A+

OK, im officially excited to get my hands on this.. Quite a few games coming out soon too, only thing is i dont know if I can justify $50 for it. The 1up review says its worth it, but I cant see it. I do need to get my hands on it though, Ill prob wait for the idiots who are selling it for half price on craigslist a week after it comes out..

So I looked at the 1up review, and they included a video of the second round vs. Glass Joe, which is actually difficult. And it looks like they won't be toning down the wacky racism that the original game had. Glass Joe speaks exclusively in French, and still flails around hilariously.
