Default Punch-Out Wii!

I figured, to start branching out from the other thread.

Few tidbits.
-3 New Boxers or so
-2 Player Versus mode, I believe.

And new trailer

I'm afraid the controls will suck. Fortunately there's always NES-style.

It could, and it couldn't.

Anyhow another option for controls it seems, and I'm curious how this works out.

Using the balance board, I assume to weave in and out and then wiimote for rights and chuck for lefts.

IGN's hands-on with the game.
It sounds like you may be able to unlock some of the other boxers or just a bad tease at the end.

Default Re: Punch-Out Wii!

Things of note:

1. a. No M+ functionality
1. b. No 1-to-1 controls
2. a. Can be played with the Wiimote and nunchuck together
2. b. Punches using the Wiimote and nunchuck do not register speed/strength/direction -- they only substitute for button presses
3. a. Unplug the Nunchuck for standard NES type controls
3. b. left/right punches on the 1 and 2 buttons, left/right dodge on the left and right of the D-pad, and Super Punch on the A. To hit high, push up on the D-pad; to hit low, simply hit the punch buttons without a direction. To duck, it's a simple push down on the D-pad.
3. c. Nunchuck can be unplugged on the fly

- completing a circuit changes Little Mac’s outfit (green, to blue, to ect…)
- use all three stars at once for a triple star spinning uppercut
- ring size/venue changes from circuit to circuit
- Little Mac wears a helmet in the training session (details discussed earlier)
- as mentioned before, there will be specific challenges in Exhibition mode

Von Kaiser challenges:
- Win the fight and land EVERY punch thrown
- TKO Von Kaiser in under a minute
- KO Von Kaiser with only 5 punches

Glass Joe challenges:
- knock him down three times, but let him win by decision
- find the one-punch knockout
- win a fight without dodging/blocking/ducking

- camera zooms in as you beat up your opponent
- pressing the minus button between rounds will regain health. This is allowed once per fight, you’ll see a visual confirmation of the button press when Doc Louis eats a chocolate bar
- lose 100 times and earn the training helmet to make you invincible
- you can also tap 1 and 2 to regain health after being knocked down
- depleted heart meter means you can’t punch
- special mode unlocked after you beat the game (details are secret)

Like the challenges.
