Hold!

If Nintendo announces a ton of games, that's bad. If Nintendo announces few games, that's also bad.

???¿?

no no no. They have to do what they have to do. I am sort of squelching the idea that this is some time for third parties to shine, because they're still doing the same thing... only with significantly fewer core titles.

I think there is still stuff to buy though, so what can you do. E3 sucked for everyone.

 

[evilromero]

Why am I not seeing The Who?

 

[koam]

Well the game is geared at kids, and they're mentioning it over and over.

 

[TheGrayGhost]

As a music degree holder, this is killing me. They're saying five year old love it though. Miyamoto thinks early music education should be based on it.

Isn't everyone in Japan required to play an instrument?

 

[Crumpet Trumpet]

Is there a liveblog for this?

IGN and stiqofjoy

 

[A Link to the Past]

Someone should rush the stage grab the mystical "fourth" Wii and scream: "what's in youuuuuu!!!!!".


Then calmly sit down and scream Kid Icarus.

Obviously, it's a trailer DVD containing Pikmin 3, Drill Dozer 2, Kirby Wii, Punch-Out!! Wii, Donkey Kong Country 4, Star Fox Wii, Chibi-Robo! Wii, Elite Beat Agents 2, New Super Mario World, Metroid Dread, Kirby Tilt 'n Tumble 2, Excite Motorsports, Nintendo Detective Club, and Jam with the Band.

Ok THIS

7:19 Aaron Rosenbeck comes up to show off the separate drumming mode. Using the buttons and the Nunchuk/Remote and the Wii Balance board, he can control a nine-piece drum set. He's definitely an experienced Wii drummer, effortlessly putting together nice set.

7:20 There will be a lesson structure built in to the game that Miyamoto says can teah anyone how to play the drums "in a few weeks." He hopes we'll get more drummers and a lot more kids interested in music.

sounds promising.

Not lining up the colored tiles...like actually learning to play an instrument.

 

[Pre]

there's a fourth wii?

please don't get my hopes up like this

There's an unused Wii sitting on the table.

 

[VegaShinra]

Yeah, it's at *******

[Frenck]

Wii Music is great. It finally gives me the chance to fulfill my lifelong dream of doing a cover version of Child in Time just with silly dog barks.

 

[Bloodwake]

Even better, just start screaming the lyrics for Baba O'Riley

:lol

 

[Drkirby]

I'm getting an odd feeling that it will be over after Wii Music.

I don't think so. There are 4 wii's, so there is most likely something in the last one. Ether they are going to show off Wario Land Shake, or something new. Or it could just be there in case one didn't work...

 

[DonDepre]

Obviously, it's a trailer DVD containing Pikmin 3, Drill Dozer 2, Kirby Wii, Punch-Out!! Wii, Donkey Kong Country 4, Star Fox Wii, and Chibi-Robo! Wii.

Wii can't reproduce DVD

 

[lopaz]

Why am I not seeing The Who?

Because you're a goddamned furry

 

[kottila]

The Who is my favorite band of all time btw. I don't know how much longer I can hold out.

WTF! Run like the wind. Why bother with this? In 90 minutes they haven't given you material for more than a paragraph long article

 

[koam]

a bit OT but first NHL 2k9 shot for the wii

 

[Chibbi Brady]

Just leave Chris, honestly you know what crap is coming up and The Who aren't getting any younger.

 

[sykoex]

Have they announced any licensed songs for Wii Music yet? I keep seeing The Who mentioned.

 

[Teknoman]

Wii music seems to be over.

 

[majortom1981]

its a spare. Thats it.

 

[J-Rock]

Some 5-8 year old children of the development staff came in to try the game. "Children of that age could not pull themselves away from this gam," says Miyamoto.

Ok...now I want this to end. Just end this Nintendo...please...make it stop...it's starting to hurt...

 

[Dolphin]

Ok THIS

Should have called it Wii Drums and I might have actually bought it.

 

[A Link to the Past]

Wii can't reproduce DVD

I meant a Wii DVD.

 

[Doorman]

Obviously, it's a trailer DVD containing Pikmin 3, Drill Dozer 2, Kirby Wii, Punch-Out!! Wii, Donkey Kong Country 4, Star Fox Wii, and Chibi-Robo! Wii.

D-don't do such things to me! ;_;

The fourth Wii probably contains either the pre-booted drumset demo, or Shaun White Snowboarding.
My hope for E3 has been sufficiently quenched by now. Oh well, at least Wario Land Shake is still awesome.

 

[Chris Remo]

I feel like I should get a "GAF Martyr" tag or something for this.

 

[Somnid]

Invisa-drums is the coolest looking part. It really needs more of that.

Get the hell out of the Artist Formerly Known as Nintendo's "conference" and go see THE WHO!

 

[Haunted]

The drums are the most interesting part of Wii Music for me, by far.

I feel like I should get a "GAF Martyr" tag or something for this.

:lol If you actually stay until the end and miss The Who concert for this, Ami should give you one.

 

[majortom1981]

Go to the who. you know nothing will be announced. its not worth it.

 

[nyong]

More features like this and I might buy it.

 

[schuelma]

Q and A, misery almost over

 

[heliosRAzi]

I feel like I should get a "GAF Martyr" tag or something for this.

Only if you own Nintendo for their mistakes.

Also, I think that Shaun White snowboarding game is in the fourth Wii.

 

[lopaz]

I feel like I should get a "GAF Martyr" tag or something for this.

Wait... are you eschewing a Who concert for this? You need a "FUCKING MORON" tag, no offence

 

[MisterHero]

I feel like I should get a "GAF Martyr" tag or something for this.

Martyrdom is ANTI-AMERICAN

 

[JaMarco]

Wii Music is actually sounding OK for what its trying to do.

 

[VegaShinra]

Pikmin 3 is in the fourth Wii. It has to be.

 

[J-Rock]

I feel like I should get a "GAF Martyr" tag or something for this.

Seriously dude, I feel for you. I don't see how you are doing it.

 

[Knives]

How about asking some tough questions inside of whining?

 

[Darklord]

"Among the 50 songs in the game, there will be a variety of public domain songs, but also a variety of popular licensed music."

 

[Amir0x]

I feel like I should get a "GAF Martyr" tag or something for this.

i am so, so sorry Remo. If there's anything I can do for you during this time of hardship, I'm there man

 

[Won]

I feel like I should get a "GAF Martyr" tag or something for this.

Just raise your hand and ask Miyamoto if he can switch the TV channel to MTV.

 

[nyong]

"Among the 50 songs in the game, there will be a variety of public domain songs, but also a variety of popular licensed music."

Getting warmer!

 

[devilhawk]

And the 4th Wii had Wii Music in it, for the drums. There will be no 4th Wii magic.

 

[JaMarco]

Pikmin 3 is in the fourth Wii. It has to be.

no...its not

 

[Dolphin]

Only if you own Nintendo for their mistakes.

Also, I think that Shaun White snowboarding game is in the fourth Wii.

Probably, that would make the balance board make sense.

 

[tabsina]

Wii can't reproduce DVD

new wii sku to be revealed with dvd playback then...

stop ruining our dreams for a trailer montage

 

[Chris Remo]

Wait... are you eschewing a Who concert for this? You need a "FUCKING MORON" tag, no offence

It's true!

 

[schuelma]

And the 4th Wii had Wii Music in it, for the drums. There will be no 4th Wii magic.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Mashing]

They should just rename it to Wii Music Training and put the Brain Training guy in the damn game or something.

Obviously this "game" falls under the same category as Brain Training does.

 

[seat]

The drums are the most interesting part of Wii Music for me, by far.

Hm, so perhaps there will be some redeeming quality to this game? If it really teaches you how to drum, and not fake-teach, then I'll hold my judgment until we get more impressions.

Still though, for the time being this looks to be the least impressive game in the "Wii___" lineup, and that's really saying something.
