S&P2 looks awesome. They just need to give them real shadows.

What for? Unless someone is only controlling the crosshairs: bad idea.

Holy shit, Next Level Games is doing the new Punchout? Amazing! They're three blocks away from me! I want to go visit them.

Also, S&P2 looks awesome, but why is the main character a little kid?

Excitebots™: Trick Racing has elements that make it one of the more unique racing games on the market. It launches April 20 and lets everyone in the family use the Wii Wheel™ accessory in unique and changing environments, play fun minigames and perform crazy tricks in a game that builds on the Excitebike™ and Excite Truck™ franchises.

Donkey Kong® Jungle Beat™, originally made for the Nintendo GameCube™ system, launches May 4 with newly added motion controls. It's the latest in Nintendo's New Play Control! series of games.

Punch-Out!!™ launches May 18 and brings back all of the fun of the beloved, classic NES® game that thrilled players in the early 1990s. Boxers battle as iconic hero Little Mac as they fight their way through a cast of new and familiar boxing opponents on their quest to win the coveted WVBA (World Video Boxing Association) Championship Belt.

I really really hope Punch Out is done well.

That description makes it sound like Little Mac is the only playable character...

I think i've just given up on gaming.

I don't know what this means for the game, but it can be played NES style as well as with motion controls.

It's coming from the best possible game studio. Remember how knockdowns were the pillar of Mario Strikers gameplay? These are the same guys making this game. I just know that it's going to rock.
