I plan to review Punch-Out! soon but haven’t had a chance to play enough of it. This is going to be a brief overview of it in case you’re thinking about running out to grab it.

This game is a true remake of the original Punch-Out back in the days of the NES. If you liked the original, you’ll like the re-make. Nostalgia factor is very high. It’s a graphical puzzle figuring out how to beat each boxer. Currently I’m busy having King Hippo pound me into submission.

Graphics are updated and look very good. Again, a 2009 version of Punch-Out.

Summary : If you have fond memories of Mike Tyson kicking your teeth in, get this game. If you have no memories of the original, or hated it, skip it. Too early to talk about replay value but it feels like it would be a good rental
