Default Wii Boxing

After playing 3 or so opponents, This is the most fun I've had with a boxing game since the days of Ring King and Mike Tysons Punch out.

Now, however, I am drenched in sweat as I am fat and out of shape.

Maybe my Wii will help get me into better condition.

[censored] Wii Boxing.

(Bitter because my GF hands down kicked my ass like eight times in a row.)

I showed that hooker who's boss in Wii tennis though.

Wii boxing ranges from really fun (controls are working) to absolutely ridiculously unfun and frustrating (controls are working terribly, every punch of yours is going off in wild directions while your opponent pummels you).

Could a 3rd Party Wii Boxing game work using 2 Wiimotes at once? Maybe the computer controls your movements and you do blocking and punching? Or is movement too key?

1. I do not understand why this would be any better than a wiimote + nunchuck.

2. I hyperextended my arm playing this damn game and was unable to wii it up for a wiik.

Seems to me it could. You ever play that motion sensing arcade boxing game? Basically it has two gloves and they track your hands movement well, and then it has other sensors that can tell if you are dodging left/right or ducking. You don't get to circle the ring or anything, but it's a very satisfying and fun game.

A wii boxing game could basically just use the 2 wiimotes for throwing punches and then if you hold down the B button or something it controls your dodging. I actually think that would be pretty sweet.

Punch throwing and position detection for the nunchuck isn't as precise.
