Wii Music dated for North America

This game looks great! A freestyle music game with 60+ instruments, Nintendo songs and Mii Compatibility. Perhaps the Super Mario theme song isn't your cup of tea, try the borderline speed metal F-Zero X theme.

It has nothing to do with the music; I'd love a Rock Band with Nintendo music. I hardly thing it's right to rate down someone because they spoke their opinion. Mii support has become extremely gimmicky. And I mean, from every person who's tried the demos at E3, it's pretty clear the game plays the music whether you try or not. And they already said it doesn't rate your performance. So what you get is a $50 package of 60 songs that you can mess with the tempo on. ...whoo. I'm sorry if you do find this interesting, because I don't mean to offend you. But the fact does remain this is being marketed to the casual crowd like almost all of Nintendo's games now.

In all honesty, this had a lot more potential. I'm disappointed. Even if this turns out good, it's definitely not gonna be $50.

Nintendo, you wanna make a good music game that doesn't take skill? Make Electroplankton Wii. Now that was a nice foray into the music genre.

"Make Electroplankton Wii."

Wow, I couldn't agree more.

I've seen enough WiiMusic bashing, I won't bother adding to it other than by saying Nintendo has a plethora of DS titles (Electroplankton, Hotel Dusk, New Super Mario Bros.)that could easily be given sequels on the Wii (just like with Trauma Center, Cooking Mama, Drawn to Life) and instead they release THIS.

Honestly, I don't have enough room in my house to have each of these instruments. I don't have enough room in my house to have each of these pretend video game instruments. Nobody does.

Thus, Wii music is a fantastic solution. It allows for more creativity of a title such as Rock Band, while taking up exponentially less space. If you focus on the instruments you don't already have (cello, the violin, piano, etc.), instead of those you do (guitar, guitar, guitar, bass guitar, drumset, guitar), there's really no contest.

That's why I want Wii Music. I'd spend $50 for a buttload of fake instrument playing instead of $130 for a limited set of fake instrument playing anyday.

You should probably stop acting sensible, or you might break the Internets.

+1 for you, sir.

your comment is the only reason i would think about purchasing this game. my two year old son would love to make music with his adored wiimote.

i'm a musician, and not the plastic kind, but i think this is a fair attempt at involving the casual gamer in a music based game. creative use of the wiimote, if nothing else.

frst comment btw
