For when you don't get drawn into a three-way dance.

The first weekend of the ARMS Testpunch was a volleyball show, so the second will change it up a bit.

On the Japanese ARMS Twitter account, it was announced recently that the June 2-4 session of the Testpunch will feature Hoops and Skillshot as play options in lieu of the Volleyball mode. Hoops involves using the ARMS to slam the opponent through a basketball hoop, while Skillshot is a competitive target-breaking mode.

Both modes were demoed in the ARMS Direct.

This is great news.  I hope they learned that the Vball mechanics need a bit of tweaking.

Did they mention if the stages in battle mode would be the same?

Min Min's Ramen Bowl stage will at least be making the rounds. (http://nintendoeverything.com/arms-global-testpunch-adding-ramen-bowl-stage-this-weekend/)
