Topic: The Official Wii Music Thread (6 players, 40 instruments and screens)

[Mashiro]

Wii Music news is always good news to me and this comes straight from The-Magicbox.com:

Nintendo's Wii Music, a new music game in which you use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk as various music instruments and perform different kinds of music. There will be over 40 types of instruments to choose from, up to 6 players can play the game simultaneously. Operation is simple, you follow the music notes on screen and press the appropriate buttons or move the controller at the right time.

6 players seems like it could be a lot of fun =D

That guitarist is so metal.

I need to see more of this game to understand what's going on. I hope it's good.  

[Mashiro]

What's going on? WHAT'S GOING ON!? I'll tell you what's going on . . .

the most kick ass jamboree ever!

[Mario]

I hope you can actually create stuff

Why do we think it's six players simultaneously?  The screen shots only show four players.  Sure, there are six characters on screen, but a couple of those could easily be CPU controlled.

Because that's what the site says? =)

The-MagicBox hasn't been wrong with info before so . . .

"I hope you can actually create stuff"

Me too.  If it's just another rhythm game I couldn't care less.  I'm just not interested in a game like that because all my friends play real instruments and if we're getting together anyway we might as well jam for real.  Though that's a unique situation and I can see why others would be interested.  Still though with games like Guitar Hero where the controller looks like the real instrument using a remote for just keeping a beat is lame in comparison.

But if I can compose and/or just play whatever then WiiMusic is like owning another musical instrument and that interests me a lot more.  I loved the music mode in Mario Paint and when that came out I didn't even know how to play an instrument.  Just making something was cool.

I have NO DOUBT in mind that you'll be able to create your own music.  You can't look at those screens and assess the whole game. For one, we already know that there's at least a Symphony mode. While this may have been a demonstration, one could argue the same about the entire WiiSports package.

Haven't we already raped the idea the Mario Paint Wii is gold?

I think I had first with Kairon taking up sloppy seconds.

When it comes to Mario Paint, I'll take what I can get.

I see neither Tuba nor Cowbell.

This game is made of Phail until further noted of there inclusion.
