Punch-Out!! Producer Hopes for Sequel on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

The producers of the Wii-envisioning of the classic Punch-Out!! have expressed desire to make a sequel to the successful brawler.

In an interview with Next Level Games, published in the magazine out this week, producer Ken Yeeloy says he would like to "evolve the franchise further and add some cool, new things." The original was designed to be similar to the NES original, a "definite, undeniable connection to the original".

Gameplay lead Bryce Holliday added that "when the current title has gathered its new fanbase I would personally love to take the IP and the mechanic and give it a little twist. Cooperative, competitive multiplayer support or create-a-boss mode would be places to start but we'd need to come up with a new 'hook' like the motion controllers gave us in this iteration."

Did you enjoy the Wii version of Punch-Out!! - What would you like to see in a possible sequel?

Yeah, motionplus and more characters. well, then, I don't exactly know what WM+ would add, unless there's a way of improving the nunchuck aswell.

Sequel sounds good, fair enough really - would be a shame to waste the engine!

Good news! Maybe they will make it more like Super Punch-Out!! and less punishingly difficult.
