Rock Band 4 not coming to Wii U because "the audience is not there"

This is all the more reason the Wii U version is a lower priority though.

You CAN'T play Rock Band in any form on PS4 or XB1.

Except that Harmonix are working on making the PS360 "instruments" backwards compatible for the PS4/Xbone, so it is clearly a concern.

They wouldn't even need to develop new "instruments" at all, surely the Wii U would be much cheaper than the others to develop for.

What I meant was, you already have access to Rock Band on a Wii U, with all your instruments. It's definitely a concern for Harmonix, hence they'll let you bring your instruments across. However my point was, if you have a PS4 or an Xbox 1, you have no way at all of playing Rock Band because there is no backwards compatibility. Whereas, if you have the games on Wii, they still work in your Wii U.
