Miyamoto Is Producing Punch-Out

[wraggster]

When old-timey Nintendo gamers cried out for more old-timey Nintendo games, I don't think Punch-Out was what people had in mind. Wasn't what I had in mind. I had F-Zero 16:9 and Return To Luigi's Mansion in mind. Ah well! Punch-Out it is, and despite the game looking so early you'd swear they cobbled it together in a post-E3 frenzy of appeasement and atonement, people are excited. Will the knowledge that Shigeru Miyamoto is "producer" of the game get you any more excited? Because he is. Course, he's only a producer, not the producer, so all he could be doing is rubber-stamping and putting his name on the box, but even that should be enough for many of you.

the early screen shot of punch out wii doesn't seems great in my opinion, I'd rather play the snes version instead.

Punch-out Wii:
-- Enjoy the Mario theme, the orchestrated Zelda theme, and Russian folk songs while you take a wack at Mr. Dream! (or your mom's Mii! LOL!!). This time, online play might be bearable!

Anyway, I liked Punch-out! (moreso Mike Tyson's Punch-out), and I hope they're successful in reviving it. :)

I liked the original Punchout, so I have to ask, for the sake of a sale: What makes this different from Boxing in Wii sports?
