Hajime No Ippo: More than just a boxing game |
Listed in: Wii Tags: Manga, PS2
Ó
For those who aren't very familiar with the game (or with the anime and manga, at least), be glad to know that this is going to be a bit like Wii Boxing. According to Impress Watch, you'll be using the nunchuck and the Wii remote for aiming and punching. Varied kinds of punches can be dealt using the different buttons on both controllers.
In terms of graphics, expect this game for the Wii to be more promising than the PS2 version. Cell shaded style graphics based on the manga will be used to bring the characters (and the entire game) to life. The game will also stick to the original manga storyline and Hajime No Ippo will also include the original characters. So expect to be drawn into the game - whether you like it or not.
Unfortunately though (and as far as we could translate thanks to online language tools), the game can support only one player at the moment. Here's hoping that will change soon with future info releases about the game.
Originally written by Morikawa George, Hajime No Ippo tells the story of a young aspiring boxer, Makunouchi Ippo, as he trains hard to be like his boxing mentor and savior (he did save Ippo from being bullied) Takamura Mamoru who happens to be one astounding boxing champ. The previous statement might have summed up the plot, but if you read the manga, watch the anime, and play the game, you'll find that there's more in Hajime No Ippo than the lead character aspiring to be the world's greatest boxer.
Ah, can't wait for the game. For now though, let's be satisfied with screenshots. Lots of 'em.
