Little Mac is ready to get back in the ring in Punch-Out!!

You know what I really miss? Old school early '90s promotional videos for videogames. Sure, they were all pretty cheesy, but those promos always did the job of hyping up videogames for me. I still remember the day when I got a video cassette for Diddy Kong Racing and a "confidential" dossier for GoldenEye 64 from Nintendo.

These two new promotional videos for the new Punch-Out!! feel just like those old school promos. It also reminds me a lot of Team Awesome's Punch-Out trailer (speaking of which, I wonder what they've been up to.)

In the first video, we see Little Mac go through training to get ready to fight King Hippo once again. We also see Doc Louis talk a bunch of nonsense about Yo-Yos and stuff. Poor guy is going senile. In the second video, Doc Louis shows off how people will be playing Punch-Out!! on the Wii.

This is the kind of videos that need to be made more often. Check out the promo videos for yourself after the break.

[P.S: Here's a funny Punch-Out related YTMND (Via GoNintendo) and Punch-Out boxing gloves accessories that GameStop is selling this week.

[Thanks, UberSlug!]

I love it. "Dance like a fly, bite like a mosquito!" Doc would be an awesome bonus character.

Raggy Mop

That was genius, they need to make some more of these babies!

Capm Trevo

Ah, finally, Nintendo is bringing back GOOD commercials. I don't think I've had this much enjoyment from a game commercial since the one made for pikmin 2.

Jack Maverick

A Nintendo commercial where it isn't just a random pop star fiddling around with a device that Nintendo has made? Awesome. Whoever was playing Doc Brown was spot on, and Little Mac reminds me of a little bit of Mr. Burch which I thought was funny.

Also, Doc getting knocked out by Glass Joe? Come on.

CWal37

Those are seriously awesome.

randombullseye

Bike bike! Stole my bike!

How long until you know where does you know what with that clip?

Johnny Justice

"Whoever was playing Doc Brown was spot on"

Hey, he's not called Doc Brown! RACIST ALERT!!! RACIST ALERT!!!

The Octagon

I definitely remember the Diddy Kong Racing video cassette. Those were the days. Remember the Nintendo/Pepsi Game Camp with Bo Jackson? Seriously good advertising.

Fury-Genesis

Shiiiiiiiit! How do you go from starring in the Wire to Punch-Out! commercials? Ouch. ;P

Love the commercials though, awesome! WANT this game!

NostalGeek

not too nick pick or anything but considering it's 2 minutes long it's really a trailer (plus you have the ESRB rating at the beginning.)

Commercials run for 15-30secs. sometimes 1 minute but never more.

atastysammich

What parallel universe have I woken up in where Nintendo ads are still awesome?

...That reminds me, whatever happened to YTMND Thursday?

Anthony Burch

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit

brosef

"and then you may end up walkin' the dog"

Can I get an 80's slowclap for that?

JLondon78

Hell yeah, Anthony, for the Clay Davis shout out! He will ALWAYS be Clay Davis to me!

Phoenix Gamma

I kinda want those boxing gloves. I just wish there was a better photo to look at them.

Naim Master

Seriously awesome .

BulletTrain

"then you may end up walkin the dog"

Oh jesus. Classic.

Monodi

What atastysammich said. I hope Nintendo doesn't advertsie any more games like make-up.

Chronic Logic

Doc Louis was awesome, but Little Mac, not so much.

Jack Maverick

Damn it, I meant Doc Louis. Dunno how I got Back to the Future in my head during the time of that comment. Methinks it's already too late to correct myself now.

Drack48

OMG Clay Davis as Doc, best casting ever. Those are amazing.

Lewis Bell

Fuck yeah Paulie Malinaggi

Danzflor

they need to make more of this if they want me to buy the game =D
