Official Punch Out!! Site Reveals New Brawler
Posted by Damien McFerran
Nintendo is being SUCH a tease, you guys!
We already know that many familiar faces will be returning in the Wii version of Punch Out!!, but Nintendo has confirmed that new characters will be present also.
The Punch Out!! website now has a little teaser online which shows the outline of a new challenger, along with the words 'Coming Soon'.
Could Iron Mike be making his Punch Out!! comback? Probably not, but you can imagine the rumours that are currently doing the rounds as we speak.
The game is due for release in North American on May 18th.

Oscar De La Hoya!
Edit: I joke. But the boxer seems to have green gloves... Mac's predecessor?

Mike certainly needs the money, but that doesn't look like his silouette to me.

Where does he have green gloves? It's all black...
I'd imagine he'd be the new boss, the silhouette could even pass as Mr. Dream.

@chunky_droid: I zoomed in on it. I can kind of make out what appears to be green on the top of the gloves.

That is most probably Piston Honda. Shape of silhouette's head hints at headband.

Guessing Piston Honda, another licensed boxer, or "Mr. Dream".

It can't be Mike Tyson; according to an interview he doesn't even know that there's a new Punch Out!! coming for Wii

I don't think Nintendo would touch Mike Tyson with a ten foot pole, esp after biting an opponents ear off years ago
Personally, I hope they allow us to use Miis in as opponents, but knowing Nintendo and they're anti-violence policies...

I think, well at least I'm hoping it's a new guy. This guy is way to big to be Piston Honda. Most likely: Super Macho Man.

Your all wrong... It's obviously Rocky Balboa.

@Stardust: So why Boxing in Wii Sports? It's Mii only!
and the way they crumple to the ground is probably the most violent looking I've seen in a boxing game lol.
@Twilight: Fair enough I see it now, now to play the Punch-Out!! games and see who has green gloves
