Probably at first glance you will think that the dynamics of the gameplay has changed but it's not that different from the previous incarnations of Punch Out. There are two controls modes, one that uses the Wii motion controls and the other one mirroring the NES. controls, it doesn't matter which one you choose to fight with as either of them are easy to master.
The first fight in this version of Punch Out, mirrors the first fight of the NES. It's with Glass Joe, the blonde boxer of the first game. The strategy is quite simple: avoid his jabs and hooks and hit him in the jaw to knock him down. This fight shouldn't be difficult because it will serve as an indirect tutorial for what is going to come. The second fight of the Minor Circuit will be with Baron Von Kaiser; the strategy against Von Kaiser is not difficult, you have wait for his line and then hit his face until he is defeated.
The third fight is with a new character Disco Kid, but is not difficult either because as his predecessors he only has two set of moves both of which are easy to avoid, his left hook and right jab. To avoid them just follow his movement and when he has his defense down hit him in the jaw and repeat the process to knock him down and win the fight.
The fourth fight is against a classical character, King Hippo. The strategy is similar as the first game so just make him run out of his stamina so he drops his pants down and punch him in his belly. After a few jaw punches he will be defeated, but beware because he is faster than the first incarnation and he will be fastest in the rematch.
After you finish with King Hippo you will be facing the Major Circuit.
The first fight in the Major Circuit is against Piston Honda. His moves are quite fast and lethal, and he is only the beginning of your problems because besides his left and right hooks he does an uppercut and much like the NES version and he has his Honda Rush where he jumps in circles and then he hits you with a powerful uppercut three times. The Honda Rush is impossible to avoid all three times so the best strategy to take is to block the punches you can't avoid and counter punch him.
The second fight in the Major Circuit is against the Bear Hugger, his name tells about his fighting strategy. His power move is the Bear Hug. The only strategy that can be used effectively is to counter his Over Hands and hit him in his weak spots.
The third fight is against another classical character the Great Tiger, the strategy is similar as the NES version. Pay attention to the direction he takes because that's the direction he is going to attack you. When he is executing the Magic Rush attack pay attention to the details because you can easily confuse the real character with one of the mirages.
The fourth fight is with another classical character, Don Flamenco. In my opinion this fight can be more annoying than the last fight. The arsenal of Don Flamenco is varied. He has a right delayed uppercut that can be dodge with some practice, also he has a right uppercut, a triple hook (similar as Piston Honda) a delayed left hook, a double clap left jab and a Super Uppercut which is similar to his delayed uppercut, only less delayed. Just follow the pattern because there is no other way. Try to knockdown him three times to defeat him.
