Characters
Punch-Out!! features a total of 13 nents 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
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 s on working his way through the ranks. 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
s, making him an easy mark and a good warm-up for the
fighters to follow. 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
An old-timey fighter whose rumored childhood difficulties have
left him eager to dish out punishment in the ring, Von Kaiser is
a dangerous nent, 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 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.
