Really, if you compare the price-per-button, these new controllers aren't too pricey at all.

Mad Catz has announced the pricing for the new instruments for Rock Band 3.

The most significant addition to the Rock Band gameplay is the new wireless keyboard controller, which features a 25-key wireless keyboard which can be laid flat on a table or held up with a strap while playing. The keyboard peripheral can also be used to play the guitar tracks. It will be priced at $79.99 if purchased separately, or $129.99 bundled with the game.

Some of Pixel's lesser-known games could be coming to WiiWare or DSiWare.

All of Pixel's games are available as freeware online, but Cave Story was released on WiiWare this past March with upgrades.

High Voltage Software's first-person shooter sequel will use MotionPlus for precision control and better tracking.

Sega announced today that Conduit 2 will support Wii MotionPlus.

Pro Mode attempts to segue players into playing real instruments, and will be bolstered by new instruments, including the brand new keyboard.

Keyboards are headlining the list of new additions for Harmonix's Rock Band 3, which will also feature Pro Mode, 83 new songs, and refined gameplay, according to USA Today.

"With the introduction of keyboards, we get to bring a ton of amazing new music onto the platform, which will help feed the appetite for music for years to come," said Alex Rigopulos, Harmonix CEO.

The game's third universe, in addition to Amazing and Noir, will be the futuristic 2099 one.

Activision confirmed that the third universe featured in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions will be the Spider-Man 2099 universe.

So far, two other universes have been announced, the classic Amazing Spider-Man universe, featuring Kraven the Hunter as the main boss, and the Noir Spider-Man universe, which will feature Hammerhead and the Goblin as bosses. The 2099 universe will feature a robotic Hobgoblin as the main boss.

Reports indicate that third-parties had been, up to now, unable to announce games for Nintendo's 3D successor to the DS.

It has been known for a while that Nintendo plans to show the 3DS in some capacity at E3 next week. It's not known how much they plan to show of their next handheld, which they announced a few months prior, but Game Informer is reporting that third parities will be clear to show their titles for the new system once E3 begins.

"Midnight Blue" is the same color as the recently announced Japanese "Blue" DSi XL (known as the DSi LL in Japan). It, as well as "Green" and "Yellow", will be available in Japan this month and come with a price drop.
