I could argue endlessly on this topic, as I personally believe Wii Music to be the most musically engrossing game ever created (yes, that's an easily defensible position, and I studied music theory / history for years), however I only have a minute, so I can argue those points later.

What I'd like to stress is this: IGN's Nintendo coverage is absolutely pitiful, and the real tragedy isn't Wii Music sales but rather the fact that IGN hasn't gone out of business yet. There's nothing I despise more than the endless wining of "not enough Zelda games" combined with an embarrassing inability to judge any game that doesn't fit the usual mold.

Personally I hope Nintendo completely ignores the IGN crowd, and all like them, in its future decisions, as it has apparently been doing thus far. Every time I see another idiot like Matt C. wining about the abandoned "hardcore" gamer, which itself is a concept I find laughable, while at the same time scratching his head at the latest game, I smile and praise Nintendo for slowly but surely alienating the people that have made gaming look like nothing but a useless pastime for socially awkward adolescent males :)
