Ahh come on guys...Thats like saying there is only room for 1 FPS on any console.. We all know thats not true. Yeah Punch Out is coming but it wont spell doom for this game. If a console can support 15 singing games I see no reason 2 boxing games cant coexist

Ready 2 Rumble for the wii, huh... Speaking of Ready To Rumble, Remember the guy that Sued nintendo because he wanted some of that Wii money? He was the same guy that came up with the idea of putting accelerometers in a controller similar to the wiimote and experimented with them with Ready 2 Rumble. He worked with Midway back then. He and Midway put a patent on the device. Years later he got fired by Midway. SOmehow, Midway apparently sold the patent to Nintendo, and well... You know what the culmination of that was, the Wii.

Now if I could find that article..

Edit:

Oh here it is, and heres the video as well. http://blog.wired.com/games...

Motion sensing controllers have been around since the days of the Atari 2600.
