Wii Music gets US release date News

Wii News by Ellie Gibson

19 September, 2008

Nintendo has confirmed Wii Music will launch in the US on October 20th.

You know, it's the game (OR IS IT A GAME or is it not or is it or DOES IT MATTER) where you get to play all manner of musical instruments using the Wii remote. Videos et cetera can be found on the gamepage.

So when's it out here? No idea. "We've made no announcement for Europe," a spokesperson told us. "This is just for the US." We're guessing it'll arrive in time for Christmas, though.

I'm sure it'll get an 08 release in Europe...not so sure about Animal crossing Wii.

Still, at least Europe gets "Disaster- Day of Crisis" on October 24th...the US hasn't been given a release date yet.

I think we got the better end of the deal for once.

Shame, I'm in the US next month, but home on the 11th so it's not an option. At least I'll be able to pick up Wii Fit (will it fit in my case though?).

ps I'm a US Wii owner.

The first Nintendo title I haven't put on my list in a long while. All I really want right now is Animal Crossing: City Folk

If this gets good reviews, I'll be surprised and get it. I'll probabbly let it float by though, because from what I've seen, it's a good idea done badly, which is unlike Nintendo...

It COULD be awesome. Maybe.

Or it could be that all the instruments make the sound of the bottom of a barrel being scraped.

Isn't Eurogamer supposed to report about GAMES, not toys? Miyamoto himself said it wasn't a game.

This "game" comes across as being absolutely dreadful... or rather terribly basic and undemanding... from the stuff I've read and seen. It'll be perfect for the casuals I guess but for me... no, thanks! I guess I'll continue waiting for a good, interesting *and* deep game for my Wii... whenever that is...

/laughs and points at all the macho men who play with digital toy guns and cars critising a game where you play with toy instruments

Get some perspective chaps, our hobby isn't manly or macho. It's play, pure and simple.

Absolutely true. However, I'm glad you said it and not me, cos you'll still get slagged for playing 'kiddie' games. No need to let facts stand inthe way of shitting on the Wii, is there, gents?

God forbid you might actually play something on your games console for FUN!

Hey, I thought all games consoles were good for was for teenage boys to show how grown up they were by playing violent sweary games which are carbon copies of each other.

Screw innovation.. Screw fun.. I want more fps games!

Well and truly sick and tired of this.

How can you judge what is primarily an interactive experience based solely on words on a page and videos of gameplay? This leaves out the primary component of the medium, which is interactivity. The interactiveness. The interaction.

Would you judge a film by a radio advert? A book by a TV advert? A woman by if her 'collar' and 'cuffs' matched?

"oh--bollox" - dont bother mate.

The people who write stuff like that are just owners of another console who've written it off based on two things:

1. it's a wii exclusive (something they cant play)
2. It's not a shooter


But yet perversely will be quite happy playing guitar hero...
