Remember that Punch-Out!! tournament on Saturday at the Nintendo World Store in New York? Well, things just got a little more interesting.
For the truly video game fashion-conscience, GoNintendo unearthed a tantalizing tidbit from the official WVBA Boxing Twitter feed with pictures of Lil' Mac's pink hoodie IRL. Then, two hours later, hopes were dashed for non-competitors:
Sorry folks, Mac’s pink sweatshirt isn’t for sale. Only the most skilled boxers at Saturday’s Punch-Out!! Challenge will win the threads.
Sad pandas for the rest of us, but at least it's a prize worth competing over for the diehard Punchies out there.

euhh...seriously who would buy ...(!@X#,,)...i mean ware this....come on ...!
You would have to have mad boxing skills like lil mac to pull that look off - ie no one would dare insult you !!
haha, i just signed up a few hours ago for the tournament, i only knew the trophy and punchout prize...
this makes me have to win! I would so rock that hoodie.
You'll get all the babes by sporting those threads.
Well, of course this isn't the REAL reason you compete--if you win the competition you win the game two days early. That being said, this pink hoody made me wish I lived in NYC even more! All my friends say I look just like Little Mac (mostly because of the hair, and because I'm pretty short), and that pink jumpsuit would be the icing on the cake!
@Kid_A: Anyone that goes to the event can buy the game early. Only a select few competitors get the hoodie.
What about the jogging bottoms? Oh well...
For the less "fortunate" of us, I just found these.
The caption under the hoodies should say "Join Club Nintendo today Mac!". He really does say that in the new game. :3
@TwilightV: We kick it old-school here.
Man, makes me wish i lived in America, let alone NYC. Come on Nintendo of Australia, hold a similar tournament dammit!
