*The Bruiser Brothers (Rick & Nick) were originally planned to be in the new Punch-Out!! game for the [[Nintendo Wii]]. However, they were scrapped due to [[no]]t having [[enough]] personalities to be memorable. | *The Bruiser Brothers (Rick & Nick) were originally planned to be in the new Punch-Out!! game for the [[Nintendo Wii]].

*Those who created Punch-Out!! for the [[Nintendo Wii]] stated that the reason why they mostly put the guys from the [[Nintendo|NES]]' version of Punch-Out!! on the Wii's version was because that they were a much better thing to do than create a whole bunch of new guys. Besides, it was also served as a great homage to the NES. | *Those who created Punch-Out!! for the [[Nintendo Wii]] stated that the reason why they mostly put the guys from the [[Nintendo|NES]]' version of Punch-Out!! on the Wii's version was because that they were a much better thing to do than create a whole bunch of new guys.

| − | *There's a rip-off of this series for the [[Nintendo Wii|Commodore 64]], ZX Spectrum, and Amstrad computers entitled "Frank Bru[[no]]'s (World Championship) Boxing." It's basically a watered-down, modified port of Super Punch-Out!! from the arcades. In this game, [[you]] play as some dude named Frank Bru[[no]] instead of [[Little Mac]]. There's also some guys who were rip-offs of [[Bear Hugger]], [[Bruce Lee|Dragon]] [[Jackie Chan|Chan]], and <s>[[Vodka Drunkenski]]</s> [[Soda Popinski]] named ''"The Canadian Crusher,"'' ''"[[Bruce Lee|Fling Long Chop]],"'' and ''"Andra Puncharedov"'' respectively. As if that wasn't bad enough, they decided to make themselves racist by naming some of their boxers with terrible names like "Antipodean Andy", "Tribal Trouble", "Ravioli Mafiosi", and even "[[France|Frenchie France.]]" Also, this game decided to use [[Rocky Balboa]]'s music instead of trying something original. | + | *There's a rip-off of this series for the [[Nintendo Wii|Commodore 64]], ZX Spectrum, and Amstrad computers entitled "Frank Bru[[no]]'s (World Championship) Boxing."

*Another rip-off of the Punch-Out!! games was named "Power Punch II." [[Nintendo]] originally supervised the game made by Beam Software until they disowned it. Later on, in 1992, it would be released by [[America]]n Softworks Corp. instead. It had a guy named [[Mike Tyson|Mark Tyler]] fighting against the best guys of the universe. The game sucked, but it was originally supposed to be called "[[Mike Tyson]]'s Intergalactic Power Punch". However, it was changed to Power Punch II due to the [[rape]] charges that [[Mike Tyson]] had, as well as his loss to James "Buster" Douglas. Believe it or [[no]]t, [[you]] could get the original game by many cartrige reprod[[uctions|uction]] companies. | *Another rip-off of the Punch-Out!! games was named "Power Punch II."

*All hope was [[no]]t completely lost for Punch-Out!! ripoffs, for there was one for the [[Gameboy]] Advance called "Wade Hixton's Counter Punch," which was released in 2004. It involves a guy named Wady Hixton, who's car broke down one day and he must fight random people in order to get his car back in shape. Wade Hixton's Counter Punch is basically like a tribute of the Punch-Out!! series. It pushes the Gameboy Advance's graphical display to it's limits, which is definately a [[good]] sign, at least [[4|for]] [[Xbox 360|graphic]] [[Playstation 3|whores.]] However, a partial [[bad]] sign is that this game was designed by Destination Software Inc. (or DSI Games for short), who were the same guys who published the [[god]]awful M&M's Kart Racing game for the [[Nintendo Wii]] (i.e., APPROACHING SOUND BARRIER!!!). Thankfully, this game is actually [[good]], as it has some of that great Punch-Out!! gameplay, but with some elements of its own that make it at least a little bit unique. Unfortunately, it doesn't have [[enough]] replay value for a second playthrough, but it's still a worthy pick-up, especially if [[you]]'re indeed a Punch-Out!! fan. | *All hope was [[no]]t completely lost for Punch-Out!! ripoffs, for there was one for the [[Gameboy]] Advance called "Wade Hixton's Counter Punch," which was released in 2004.
