I checked Target, Bestbuy, Blockbuster and Wal-Mart and everyone told me that it wouldnt be sold until Tuesday no matter what day the release day was. Gamestop was closed and I am sure they would actually have it since they are about the only ones who have the games on the actual release date.

Target did tell me that they had it and it would be on an endcap tomorrow.

The GameWare in the Mall of Louisiana should have it today or tomorrow, as well.

Bought it, it's pretty cool. I like the cell-shaded graphics. A new feature is you can practice before you face the opponent, which I like. A lot of the things for certain throwback characters are back. Such as if you punch bald bull in the gut during his bullrun you knock him out. King Hippo is still an easy KO if you knock him down. Some characters return from the Super Punch-Out too like Aran Ryan.

The motion controls are more fun to use and are definitely the way to go for the first playthrough and versus mode. However, in Title Defense (after you've beaten all the characters, you face them again with new, harder, faster patterns), it's harder to keep up with the motion controls (especially if you're using the Balance Board for dodging).

I only use the old school way. I tried the nunchuk and the controller but your arms get tired after a while. Don't even try to the balance board. Takes too long to register or you go the wrong way. Other than that its pretty fun.
