You know ... these days, I'm never sure whether these threads should go in the Classic or Modern game sections ... but I suppose the console has a lot more to do with that than the origins of the software franchise.

In any case, I'm glad that Punch-Out appears to be Nintendo's next revival.

One can only imagine that it'll play in a similar fashion to Wii Sports boxing, and hopefully it'll be compatible in some way shape or form with the Wii motion plus.

IMO, Nintendo's track record with this series is pretty much perfect, from the beloved 2-screen arcade games (Punch-Out! and Super Punch-Out!) to the NES game that helped define the system in its earliest days (and still holds up amazingly well to date), to the under-rated SNES title Super Punch-Out! which unfortunately is only fully realized when you make it to the "special circuit" IMO.

I hope the impending release of this means that we'll get SNES Super Punch out on the VC ...

... in the meantime, I still frequently bust out my GameCube version of Fight Night Round 2 to play on my Wii, which has the SNES Super Punch Out! as a bonus game...interestingly, I've never played "Fight Night Round 2" ... only Super Punch-Out.

Thoughts on the trailer? The series?
