I do.
There's videos of a translated playthrough on Youtube.
I like the mysterious aura it has though, so I've been saving that for a rainy day.

I was disappointed it didn't come to the UK. It looked quirky.

Well I'm sold. Always been a huge Wii head but somehow this one slipped past me.

On the list it goes.

I'm strangely okay with having not played it.
It's a really fun game to speculate about. It looks like whatever they use to make Warioware games burst out of its tank and got mixed into an Animal Crossing game.

I remember Lip was in it, even though she shouldn't be.

Sure, she was replaced with Furil in the sequel, but PdP still lives on, dammit.

Birdo and Little Mac shouldn't be there either, though it's my understanding that Wii Punch-Out didn't come out until a year after this game.

I remember people were hyping this game and lamenting that Nintendo wasn't bringing it over from Japan. The wii had a lot of these situations, who remembers xenoblade and operation rainfall?

The Wii was a patience testing time in general.
All the motion controls. The E3s. The talk about casuals. The shovelware. Mario going full squeaky clean NSMB. Bad online. SSBB taking forever to come out. Captain Rainbow never made it overseas. Captain Falcon didn't even show up.

I was over it all by the time people were demanding Xenoblade. Some guy I knew was hyping it up and I wasn't really listening. Joke's on me I guess.

Rarely. The game is pretty dang niche to me and I wasn't a fan of some of its "vulgar" elements.

Was Punch Out NES that big in Japan to begin with? The Wii version coming out a bit later is nice because it's like Captain Rainbow succeeded in bringing Litttle Mac back.

The actual Mario 2 coming out in Japan makes for a nice story reason for Birdo to be there at least. If you ignore a lot of Mario spinoffs, that is.
