Oprah Winfrey breaking new ground and heading face-first into the 21st Century has opened up the flood gates for Twitter's mass market appeal. Now everyone is free to get in on what used to be the Internets best kept secret.
Case in point: Nintendo's upcoming Wii game Punch-Out!! now has its own Twitter account, WVBABoxing. Go on and follow it; it needs friends. Why would you do that? Because you might get some Twitter-exclusive Punch-Out!! goodies, like a few new multiplayer screenshots like the one seen above.
At the time of this writing, WVBABoxing has few followers. According to Twitter analysis Web site Twanalyst, WVBABoxing has a "likeable sociopatic vain" personality, has a chatty and coherent style, and is a sharer. And sharing is caring.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
This is good news to me.
Speaking about him...

I think the Giga Mac thingy is a shark-jumper move too, the story of the game its brilliant as inspiring for that and adding this gorilla mode was.. I dunno, anticlimatic.
i know it is just for multiplayer, but Little Mac is only Little Mac, that Donkey Kong isn't Little Mac, and it could turn up the doubts for kids new to this game with stuff like "but then why doesn't he transform to beat Super Macho Man?" or "WAH! How do I transform?! Why can't I transform in campaign!?"
Well, still this looks very far from being murdered from it's complete concept and difficulty. maybe it will be easy to us as many veterans are there and we know a lot about many of their styles.
I will sit down and wait so this comes down to my hands. Remember this is a return so they had to update a bunch of stuff so it is satisfying to the old and new audience.
After all, if it doesn't cover all of our expectations, we can always play the classic. You know, the one with freaking Mike Tyson.
