According to Hajime no Ippo manga lore, Makunouchi Ippo was an underdog who used inner drive and natural talent to become a top contender in the world of professional boxing. Mak's trials and tribulations have been chronicled in games for the Gameboy Advance, PS2, PSP, and the Wii. The Nintendo DS gets some love from Ippo this December when ESP releases a Hajime no Ippo boxing game for the Nintendo DS.
This time around, the touch pen is used to control Ippo's punches as well as the bobbing and weaving motions that pugilists use to avoid incoming thunder. The Challenge Mode in the game pits a boxer against each a series of adversaries while the Free Play Mode gives gamers a chance to alter the variables of a match. Preorders ship on December 4, 2008.
