    Default You think that new "Punch-Out" will be worth it?

    You think it will be worth the $50 dollars for this game? Seems like (to me atleast) there aren't too many Wii games I would shell out $50 for, and I'm not sure if this game is one of them. Its looks pretty cool, but I might have to wait. What do you think?

    Well one thing for certian. No one can claim nintendo over exposed this series.

    I will be buying it because there track record on punch-out games have always been excellent.

    I've always had faith in Nintendo, so I am a bit biased here, but really-do you think they'll mess up one of their most wanted franchises on their flagship console in a crucial point in its lifespan? People want to love the Wii, and Nintendo wants to give them reasons. I think it will easily be worth $50.

    I have a feeling that this game will be a must-have for the Wii Library. I'm really excited to see how it will play as well, seeing as it will have NES style controls and Motion-sensor ones as well.

    Here's top hoping it's a faithful adaption that's really good.

    $50 may be a little too steep for me, even though I love Mike Tyson's Punch-Out and Super Punch-Out, and the Wii version looks awesome. $35 sounds like the sweet spot for me.

    Agreed. This was the pending release that was going to make me finally buy one. The recent trailer with Doc Louis was just too much.

    Super Punch-Out is one of my favorite games of all time, so there's no way I'm not buying the Wii version on release day. The trailers look great and everything I've read makes me think this will be a must-own.

    Looks like a must own for me but i thought it would be at the price of $40.00+

    I don't buy new games or systems, but this game looks so good, I will certainly pick it up when I find it at a good price.

    It's easy to be confident on this game, Nintendo has too many high skilled people to mess up with an easy target like Punch Out.

    The control of the Wii is ideal for this game ... must-buy

    The ultimate die-hard Punch Out fans will need to pick up one of these, as well...

    I am totally psyched for a new Punch Out. I have so many memories of playing Mike Tyson as a kid, can't wait to relive/update some of them

    Samba de Amigo and Target: Terror looked good too. They both played like crap.

    Nintendo isn't developing this game, Next Level Games is. This is the first and only Punch Out!! game not developed by Nintendo.

    Nintendo is not going to let this company screw this up. Actually Nintendo has had several game companies help them in the past with game franchises(Metroid comes to mind). Bottom line if you like yourNintendo Wii and first party games, this is a must buy. I have not cared about a ton of Nintendo Wii games, but this one is at the top of my list.

    Hmm...I wasn't aware of that. Still, I choose to have faith.

    If it weren't up to snuff though they would not release it. Power Punch 2 was supposed to be a Punch Out! game but it sucked balls, and they wouldn't let it happen.

    This to me is the most I have cared about a new release since Zelda: Twilight Princess in 2006. So in a word, yes.

    I agree as well as anyone else the lower the price the better, but let's be real here. $50 for a new game in 2009 is not bad at all.

    I'm pretty excited about it, but still reserved. I don't know yet how I feel about the new graphic style and how well the controls will be (if they're not spot-on this game will be ruined). I'll definitely be renting it first. I loved the NES and SNES games...ALOT of replay value for something that has no unlockables. I have extremely high standards for this series and I want to make sure it lives up to them before I purchase. It's kinda strange, but I'll be pre-ordering the Conduit next week instead of this game. I guess Nintendo should have hyped this game a little more!
