First of all, how does ANYBODY know that its a remake of punch out?
Punch Out came out like what? 20 years ago?!? Super punch out was the original’s sequel back in the snes days.

And now( OVER A DECADE LATER!) we are finally graced with another punch out made specifically for the wii, WITH MOTION CONTROL no less ( and presumeably motion plus if it makes sense) and all most of you folks can do is complain?

Seriously?

Art style is awesome, animation is cool, and the punch out charm seems to be intact from what little we were shown of gameplay.

Plus, how can you NOT love that little remix of the oldschool punch out music?

Can we just be happy for once and wait till we can get some more solid details of the game before we decide to find something wrong with it.

It’s Punch Out!! for chrissakes people!

“Whine, whine, whine…”

All I want to know is the control scheme, if they’ll bring back all the classics plus new ones, and if they’ll do anything new to spice up the game (hopefully more than “mini-games”).

What I’m happy about: It’s Wii PUNCHOUT BABY! Little Mac + motion controles = win. I like the visual style, by the way. Punchout was never about realism.

What I’m bleh about: It’s a remake… or a Wii-make, if you will. Even if it is Nintendo making it, and it will likely be polished as all heck… but a remake is a remake.

Why not a full sequel with guest appearances by classic NES Punchout foes?

I recall reading a piece about the time of E3 regarding a new Punch Out! game. However, the old article mentioned balance board support. Anybody can confirm this?

Yes! I especially like to see the return of the racist stereotypes.

Cool.

Old school fun awaits us all.

Now this is the kind of stuff I am liking on the Wii.

Yeah, it could be Wii Ware with those watered down visuals, but we will have to wait and see.
