what is the best:tekken or street fighter or punch out?

Wow, those are quite different games to compare. What a contrast. A banana or an orange or an apple. I pick the apple, it's simple and delicious.

I pick the banana, it has an nice 'shape'

Tekken VS Street Fighter. Right, they're both fighting games, I get it.

I love bananas

NOTE:lol!
NO NOW REALLY NOTE::P IM WACKY!

I really think you have to be nostalgic in order to enjoy the new punch out.  I played it the other day....and it's horrible.  It's just a boring timing mini-game game.

It's Punch-Out!! with a visual makeover. I think the gameplay holds up just fine. I didn't play the originals in their time so I started with Super Punch-Out!! on the Virtual Console after Punch-Out!! Wii was announced. I've been having a blast and can't wait until I get this one. Nostalgia's got nothing to do with it, it's just a unique gameplay premise that feels fun and rewarding. It's nothing like Tekken or Street Fighter and should not be compared with them. The poll is meaningless anyway, only a fraction of the Street Fighter craze veterans will have played this game. It's nothing like Wii Sports - Boxing either.

Controls are the same or very similar, patterns and graphics are different (so they might as well be new characters anyway, just the names are the same), there's unlockables and a vs mode and an extra tough mode after you beat everything. That's what people wanted, more Punch-Out!! and I don't see what else they could do with the franchise other than turn it into a conventional boxing game which then shouldn't bear the franchise name as it just wouldn't be Punch-Out!! at that point. No it's not identical to the original, but it's not far removed either. Much like Super Punch-Out!! was the SNES edition, this is the Wii edition I suppose, though they chose to use many of the same character names and styles. I was just telling you it's nothing like Wii Sports - Boxing by saying it's Punch-Out!! instead. It's no different to the various iterations of a beat 'em up franchise, except the last time we had a Punch-Out!! was 15 years ago so it's not like there's market saturation for this playing style.
