Forums - Nintendo - I hope Punch-Out!! Wii will be as hard as the original

mr khan are you the comparing the mechanics of punch out to guitar hero?

If so, then I agree, you are correct.

But then again how is it different from any game? Are not shmups like ikaruga simply pattern recognition? Or are you saying that regardless of skill, rote memorization will always take some time and therefore, difficulty is an integral part of the game?

I would say that really depends. There are plenty of ways to tweak difficulty. Glass Joe had a more obvious tell than super macho man. Will we be seeing a game where opponents look more like glass joe? Or will we see a similar progression to the original?

Also, when you say they are pitching this one straight at nostalgia, you mean they will ignore their new core demographic and make it hard right?

yeah i agree 100%....start off easy and then get progressively harder

do you think it will be?

i'm hoping they'll be different difficulty settings (because i doubt Nintendo would make it as hard as the original unless their were difficulty settings)

 

 

Nope.

The enemies flicker letting you know they are about to attack.



i just finally beat punchout yesterday...and i think dream was teh hardest boss i've ever fought. super tough...now i have officially beat punch out and super punch out.

The trailers make it look pretty difficult.

I disagree. It looks easy from the trailers.

But that might just be the first battles, just like in the original later battles got faster and harder.

I never beat Mike Tyson/Mr. Dream...
