The official website's history section didn't mention the arcades. Also, it said that Bear Hugger was a new character during the release of the SNES SPO!!, but he's actually a returning character (first appeared in the SPO!! arcade), and so were Piston Hurricane and Dragon Chan, as well as Bald Bull, Mr. Sandman and Super Macho Man. Also, some boxers are successors of those from the SNES title's predecessors. Glass Joe's successor is Gabby Jay, Pizza Pasta's is Aran Ryan (although has Piston Hurricane's "Hurricane Rush" move) and Great Tiger's is Heike Kagero.

Aww. Don't take this the wrong way, but I was hoping we had the first real minority Nintendo hero there for a second.

Damn, I saw that link yesterday while looking for something else and forgot to click on it! I'll have to check it out later. Is it as good as that "metal" version of the Punch-Out theme with lyrics that was going around a few years back?
"Let's keeeeep it cleeeeean! PUNCH-OUT!!"
Game's out in Europe today. Run out there and buy buy buy!!

Plot seems pretty simple to me: Little Mac takes down Mr. Dream (or Iron Mike, whichever.) He loses a bout for the championship to someone who rose up to the top shortly after he did (commercials make me wanna say King Hippo.) He quits fighting for some time. Some time later, the blonde kid shows up. End of the road, he, too, becomes champ and loses, I'm guessing to Mr. Sandman, and thus himself quits boxing, permanently in his case. Mr. Sandman defends for an unknown amount of years, when suddenly, Little Mac comes back to reclaim his title, and so we get Punch-Out Wii. Don't forget the whole thing with Little Mac in Captain Rainbow where the titular character wanted to help train Little Mac to be a contender again. Brawl doesn't count as The World of Trophies is an Alternate Universe officially. |

Oh dear God. First Nintendo disappoints their fans with crappy games on the Wii, now they're trying to kill us too?

Oh please. I'm known in the State of California to cause cancer. If I heard that it was known in the State of Michigan to cause cancer, THEN I'd be worried, because they NEVER say anything about causing cancer. Californians think everything causes cancer. =P
On another note, why would you buy those shorts anyways? It's not like anyone in the game wears 'em.

King Hippo wears Starman boxers. You only see them briefly before administering a beating to his ugly face... but they're definitely starmen (cameo for the win).
I love how it's specific to the "State of California". Surely something is a carcinogen or it isn't. Bizarre...
