New Wii Punch-Out!! details emerge
Nintendo has recently released a whole slew of details regarding their upcoming Wii title Punch-Out!!.
Players of the original Punch-Out!! for NES will be familiar with the cast as Little Mac, Glass Joe, King Hippo and Doc Louis just to name a few will all be making a reappearance. A new feature called “Star Punches” will also be included in Punch-Out!! which seem to be your run-of-the-mill special attack.
The biggest announcement, however, has to be the fact that there will be two different ways to play the game. First of all you can play the game using the Wiimotes motion control a la Wii boxing, but the more colorful way would be to turn the controller on its side. What does it resemble? You got it, an NES controller. Players will be able to use the Wiimote on it’s side with the 1 and 2 buttons being used for punches and jabs and the D-Pad for dodging.
The game is due out in May so expecte even more details for Punch-Out!! to emerge before then.
