After months of loving my Wii, it finally happened.

The only problem with Wii Boxing is a minor control accuracy problem.

Other than that it's just like real life boxing. When you move like a boxer with it like actually dodging to the right with feet and body as well as hands...if you actually move as if you're the guy on the screen it becomes much more intuitive.

I still have difficulty doing uppercuts on command but I'm the master of the hooks.

Just swing your arm out wide in a hooking motion.

Also remember that the way you twist your fist changes how the punches come off. I learned to do head hooks by twisting my hand downward where my knuckles pointed north. And I did otherkinds of hooks while my hand was twisted upward with my palms pointing north.

Once I get my mastery of the punches down then from there it's only sweet science application. Learning when to see an opening and putting down the proper punishment.

Wii Sports can be played sitting down or body stiff but it really comes alive when you move your body like the sports it simulates. You get a more natural feel for the techniques. At least I did.

Now if only this would help my lousy tennis game! I'm pro at Golf before this one! Embarrassing! (Oh got a Hole In One once off the flag )
