The sad thing is that none of you know what Wii Music is really about.
I say shut the hell up and wait.
I'm still wondering about the music videos as well as the fact that they said that we'll learn to play instruments.

If this really has a freestyle mode like what I'm thinking then all of you will be eating crow when this is released.

I'm still staying quiet on this game.

We can only go by what Nintendo has revealed.

I'm a Nintendo guy. I've owned every Nintendo home console save the SNES (college = broke), and the only current gen console in my home is my Wii. I have defended many of Nintendo's questionable moves - hell, I still defend Mario Sunshine and Celda. I had hopes for WiiMusic. But what they showed just looked.... lame. It appeared that what they did was take the Ocarina from TLoZ:TOOT and made a game out of it, except, not a game. An activity.

Now it could be that they bungled the presentation completely, and left many of us with wrong impressions as to the games magical secrets. Hell, this is Nintendo - I half expect that to be the case (okay - not quite half). Maybe you saw something more that I and many others missed, in which case I'd love to hear what it was. But for the time being, we have to judge based on what we've seen, and what we've seen hasn't been that thrilling.

 

That's basically what Miyamoto said in an interview at E3.  He said something like, "It's not a game, it's more interesting than a game."

I think that Wii Music is suposed to be more of a toy than a game.  It might be a very good, fun toy, but we don't know yet.

It is probably targeted at the under 10 age group.  I don't think it is meant for gamers, but instead it is aimed directly at Nintendo's expanded audience.  It will probably be a million seller because of that.

Personally, I'm not interested in it.  It will probably be panned by critics.  But that doesn't mean that it isn't good at what it was intended for.
