I made this thread a while back about how hard Wii Music is. In the enthusiast media, I'm not sure if anybody has approached this game better than Stephen Totilo. Here are some things he said about the game:
"In making such a complex performance, I could appreciate why “Wii Music” starts off with such ridiculously basic songs. Even with a simple song, I was challenged to put together a six-Mii rendition that sounded both unique and good.
At least I nailed the unique part."
"It was surprising and interesting to be taught how to turn a non-rock song into a rock song. What was less fun, however, was my inability to match the expected pattern for bass guitar and therefore fail the lesson. I’m excited by the idea that the game could teach me to play Wii-style tunes in different musical styles like rock, reggae and jazz. I’m concerned that I may not have enough musical talent to complete the lessons."
"This isn’t the kind of game that I see myself playing to win. But I’m driven right now by an oddly distinct goal: to make what I play sound better, and to hope against hope that I have the musical skills to keep up. Otherwise, I may have to have to bail out."
"The worst part about these reviews is they are [subjective]--and their scores often depend on how drunk you got the media at a Street Fighter event." — Mona Hamilton, Capcom Senior VP of Marketing
