I would SOOOO buy this game if I could. I'm suprised there hasn't been much discussion about this game considering it's coming out in Japan this week.

This video shows the controls:

Well, the title is in Japanese... and it doesn't seem likely it's going to make it to NA (actually, I don't know what I'm talking about, ignore them).

I actually would like to play many Japan-exclusive titles but I don't even know any Japanese...Well, wait, do you know any Japanese to play the game and understand the whole thing? (stupid question)

You probably already know this but Hajime no Ippo is an anime series. Manga, too.

I kind of like this style of graphics more than the Fight Night realistic style. It just seems more fun.

I want this game badly. I always told my friends that the series would be perfect for the Wii. My wish was granted. Thanks Santa Claus and Tooth Fairy.

I expect much of this game. It looks like it won't dissapoint me. (Woldwide release is probable,the series already have a PS2 title.)

Kill em Ipposan!!!

As long as the controls are better than the boxing on Wii sports....

Now if only EA would put a Fight Night game on Wii, I would buy it day one. 

EA announced that they were working on a Fight Night game for the Wii a couple of months ago, haven't heard anything since then though.

I hope the controls are better than Wii sports boxing. It was my favorite game, but still had delays and unpolished fighting. Vs mode was good enough.

Game didn't get all too high scores from Famitsu, but I think I will buy it.

Oh by the way Hajime no Ippo is known as Victorious Boxing iin the West and a few games have been released on the PS2 in the US and even in Europe.
