Own a Wii and curious when some of the games you are looking forward to will be coming out this year? Well you’ve come to the right place.
Nintendo has released its full list of games for 2009, and a little bit of info about the game that most people are excited for, Punch-Out!! Wii. Here’s the official blurb about the game: “The core game mechanics revolve around the tactics of boxing, detecting and exploiting weaknesses in the opponent’s defence. Punch-Out follows the story of Little Mac, an up-and-coming boxer from the Bronx, NY, on his way to becoming the boxing World Champion. The game includes various signature characters and the Wii Motion controls provide an intuitive & unique boxing experience.”
