Little Mac Is Back
Everyone’s favorite underdog from the 1980s joins the best of the original Punch-Out!! cast in a modern re-imagining of the series. Players will find familiar names like Glass Joe, King Hippo and trainer Doc Louis. These boxers come to life again in cell-shaded 3-D, complete with hilarious fighting animations and backstories that capture all the fun and flair of the original Punch-Out!! games.

The Wii's Motion Sensitivity
The motion-sensitive controls of the Wii console mean that when players throw punches, Little Mac throws punches as well. Additionally, you can control hooks and jabs by combining motion control with control-stick movement. The motion-sensing Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers turn real-life swings into on-screen punches, so anyone can play. The game can also be played with classic NES-style controls by turning the Wii Remote sideways.

Characters
Punch-Out!! features a total of 13 opponents for Little Mac to step into the ring with. 12 of which are returning from previous games in the Punch-Out!! series. Each have their own backstory and patterns of attacks to learn and learn to counter. Just a few of the characters you can expect to see are:

Little Mac from 'Punch-Out!!' Little Mac
Small but extremely game, Little Mac is a young, up-and-coming fighter, who with the help of his trainer, ex-champion Doc Lewis, has set his sights on working his way through the ranks.
Glass Joe from 'Punch-Out!!' Glass Joe
A fearful French fighter due to his extremely weak chin, Glass Joe will crumple to the mat quickly with just a few well-placed shots, making him an easy mark and a good warm-up for the fighters to follow.
King Hippo from 'Punch-Out!!' King Hippo
King Hippo is both huge and an immensely powerful fighter, but can be weakened with the right combinations to the head and body, giving you time to go for the knockout if you can survive his onslaught.
Von Kaiser from 'Punch-Out!!' Von Kaiser
An old-timey fighter whose rumored childhood difficulties have left him eager to dish out punishment in the ring, Von Kaiser is a dangerous opponent, but one who will turn tail if you can find his weakness.

Special Attacks
Players can obtain special 'Star Punches,' which allow Little Mac to take more health from his rival in a single punch. Players can now use multiple stars in a single punch for an extra-powerful attack.

Controller Options
Punch-Out!! features multiple controller options. For players looking to take advantage of the Wii's motion control capabilities, Punch-Out!! uses the Wii Remote and Nunchuck controllers to simulate throwing punches. Use the Nunchuck to throw a left punch and the Wii Remote to throw a right punch. Fans of the NES version and core gamers will be excited to see Nintendo has also included the option to play Punch-Out!! using the classic layout from the original NES controller. Use the 1 and 2 buttons along with the cross pad to throw hooks and jabs or to dodge.

1 out of 5 stars Do not buy if left handed!!!   August 23, 2010

OK, if you are righthanded like the majority of the population this game is probably fun and you can stop reading this review right now. The problem I have with the game is that it does not allow you to change whether the user is left or right handed. In most games this would not matter as the average user does not care whether the character on the screen is left or right handed, so long as the character moves the way you want them to. But in a boxing game it is a HUGE deal. It is frustrating trying to box where throwing a punch with your left hand has the effect of the character using his right hand. I was willing to try to play the game like a right handed person would, but I was not able to get use to using the buttons and other controls. It is sad when I would rather play the boxing in Wii Sports than a stand alone boxing game based on a classic I grew up with, all because the game designers failed to consider that nearly 10% of the population happens to be left handed.

I bought this game as a birthday present for my husband. He loved it and played it for a very long time. It came in quickly and in great condition.


5 out of 5 stars FUN!! Throwback to the mid-eighties game   August 8, 2010

Talk about a homage to a favorite game from years past. The only thing missing from this game is Mike Tyson! Punch out is just flat-out fun. Not only fun, but good for you, because you will break a sweat playing this game. The motion-controls add an entirely new dimension to the gameplay. I haven't tried the balance board yet. The nunchuck is too much fun to abandon just yet. The cut-scenes are similar to the previous versions of the game and the opponents are hilarious. A few favorites return (Bald Bull, Glass Joe, Flamenco Kid...) as well as a few new opponents (Disco Kid). If you've never played Punch Out! before (or even if you have), get ready for some hilarious opponents and combos. The animations for knockouts, combos, intros, special moves, and post-fight are too funny at times. There are several game modes. My favorites is the circuit, although the CPU opponent has a tendency to fight cheap sometimes (unblockable devastating punches or knockouts just before the bell). Occasional cheap shots aside, it's a ton of fun to work your way up the circuit. This is a good family-style game. This is the best boxing game available, not only on Wii, but ANY platform. The only thing that would have made it perfect is if it had online head-to-head mode.
