Wow, basically the same, just white. Cool

 

[Leonard]

Oh dear, this is gonna be expensive... =/

 

[Deleted member 36435]

Lol.
The game will cost more then the system.

 

[digital gopher]

Wow, white! What a concept. Who would have thought of that.

 

[KB]

I wonder if we'll ever be able to use 2 Wii remotes as drum sticks as seen in it's first E3 revealing.

 

[Doctor Manhattan]

I doubt it, but even if you can't, you can just bang on them with two off wiimotes

 

[Shadow Soldier]

Why didn't you post the Q&A?

There will be no wiimote functionality, there will be a USB HUB just like the 360 version. GHIII controllers won't work on Rock Band for the Wii. And it will be 170 dollars June 22nd. And stand alone products will be on sale on June 22nd as well.

Classic Controller. They just took the buttons off it. And it is real, it was confirmed. Check Kotaku or Joystiq.

One other thing, Wii owners got jipped, it's similar to the PS2 version, IE: No world tour. And there is no DLC either. Only 5 exclusive songs.

 

[Spic Steve]

Just cause Kotaku posted it does not make it the real deal. Look closely. Xbox guide button? It's shopped.

WHa? What!? THat's lame. Why is that? Man, this sux

Something with having small hard drive, if I'm not mistaken.
Well, Rock Band is great. I was thinking that when replace my PS2 I might go for a Wii, especially with GH and RB for it. But I could just get RB PS2 and get the same package as for the Wii -_-
w/e, looks cool. White drum set is smexy IMO.

 

[Twilight12]

Is this still true -_-?
No World Tour?

 

[SSLaertes]

No World Tour?

Meh, yeah, it is basically the same reasoning for PS2 of why there is no regular "World Tour". Meh, probably the only plus of getting Rock Band for Wii is the fact it comes with 5 songs that were originally DLC for PS3 and Xbox 360

"Dirty Little Secret" -- The All American Rejects
"Don't Look Back In Anger" -- Oasis
"Roam" -- B-52's
"Rockaway Beach" -- Ramones
"Roxanne" -- The Police

=P haha the Wii Variation of the Rock Band drum set reminds me of a paint job one member on Scorehero did to his Drum set.

Just a side note:
Wouldn't this have made a better fit in the Rock Band thread???

 

[digital gopher]

Why not pick Wonderwall as the Oasis song? Crazy Harmonix.
