Punch-Out!! Uppercuts The Conduit

On Monday, we posted a poll on the IGN.com front page, asking the reader which popular Wii game they were anticipating the most. Readers could select one from a list of nine games, which included titles such as The Conduit, Deadly Creatures, The House of the Dead: Overkill, MadWorld, No More Heroes 2, Pikmin 3, Punch-Out!!, Sin and Punishment 2, and Wii Sports Resort.

Nearly 18,000 votes were cast since Monday, and of these votes, Punch-out!!, the sequel to the popular boxing franchise came out on top with nearly 20% of the votes taken. Coming in at a very close number two was The Conduit, the High Voltage-developed first-person shooter recently picked up for publishing by SEGA, coming in just 250 votes shy of the number one slot. Pikmin 3 capped off the Top Three, grabbing 17.4% of the readers' votes.

Bottom three least anticipated games included Deadly Creatures at 2.7% of the vote, Treasure's Sin and Punishment 2 at 2.8%, and The House of the Dead: Overkill at 6.1%.

And to round things off, No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle nabbed 9.8%, MadWorld grabbed 11.5%, and Wii Sports Resort gathered a meaty 10.8%.
