So it seems in press releases for both versions of Rock Band(PS3 and Wii) Harmonix has gone on record to say Activision is holding up the compatibility issues with the guitars. I haven't seen Activision even once refute these claims, so we can probably assume they're true. If that is the case, then why is everyone blaming Harmonix for this? Unless you have proof to the contary that Harmonix is lying about compatibility issues, then take it at face value and put blame where it belongs, Activision.
@Entroper-You have to understand though that the changes Red Octane made to the Wii guitar were probably not divulged to Harmonix before they went to the press, which was pretty close to release. It doesn't really give Harmonix time to stop production, junk product and restart production to match Red Octane's new design.
I also believe the GHIII guitar for Wii was cheaper to make, so then I ask you, why did it cost the same? For every guitar you buy it was required to have a Wii-mote which costs $40. That is a tacked on price on top of a guitar that costs as much as it's 360/PS3 bredren with little of the same tech built in. Regardless of quality, it looks like Red Octane wanted to make a few extra bucks off Wii owners. Activision has shown one thing in this war with EA over music games and that's a large lust for money over customer satisfaction.
