According to Nintendo’s official Italian website (translated by IGN), upcoming Wii game Punch-Out!! will allow players to dodge and weave by shifting their weight on the Wii Balance Board.

The website states balance controls will work in conjunction with the previously revealed Wii Remote and Nunchuck controls. This brings the game’s control options to three: Motion-based Wii Remote and Nunchuck, classic NES style using a horizontal Wii Remote and the new balance board setup.

Punch-Out!! is scheduled for release in Europe on May 22.
