After weeks of playing my virtual console version of Sonic Spinball, I’ve now finally decided to play something else on the Nintendo Wii. That game is the awesome fun of PunchOut!! (yes, I have to add those two exclamation marks, since it’s in the title) For those unaware, PunchOut!! is an old-school boxing game that has been re-made for the new console generation and is as much comic fun as you could hope. It’s also one of those classic games that steps up a gear in difficulty as you progress through the game. It’s a game that is neither too complex nor too simple and is one of the more fun experiences on the Wii. There’s a video review of the game that you can watch on the excellent Giant Bomb website.
