Looks like you'll have to take part, too.
Get ready to box! Animal Boxing is a game that requires you to hold the Nintendo DS upside down to play.
The player uses the touch screen to punch in a variety of ways - tapping your opponent throws a standard punch, swiping horizontally throws a hook, and swiping upwards throws an uppercut.
By holding the stylus on-screen longer, you can charge power for a more powerful punch.
The Control Pad is used to dodge left and right, as well as block.
As your boxer takes and delivers hits, their Anger Meter increases.
When it is at its maximum, your boxer fills with rage, and all of their attacks become more powerful for a limited time.
This can be used to turn the tide in a match.
However, opponents can also use this tactic, meaning that blocking and dodging become very important during these moments! As with other boxing games, your goal is to defeat your opponents in a series of bouts to win the championship belts.
Once you defeat the champion, you'll win the belt and progress to the next championship.
Each championship you win unlocks new animals to fight against in the Vs.
Animal matches, as well as new items to decorate your boxer with.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks Animal Boxing for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Animal Boxing to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2008.
