Wii gamers will be disappointed to discover that Harmonix on pulling Rock Band Network support for the Wii as of next week.

Apparently it's not worth the effort to bring these songs to the Wii or so says Rock Band staffer Aaron Trites who broke the news on his twiter.

"Next Tuesday, 1/18/2010, will also be the last scheduled batch of Rock Band Network songs brought over to the Wii," said Trites

"With the smaller online install base, limited demand for releases so far and the significant amount of work it takes for our producers and audio team to convert and process these additional tracks we're no longer able to continue submitting RBN content to the Wii. Regular Wii DLC, and RBN releases for the 360 and PS3 will continue uninterrupted."

The Rock Band Network featured in both Rock Band 2 and 3 allowing users to submit their own songs to appear on the service.

Rock Band 3 launched on all major platforming (not including the PC and PSP) in October 2010.

Sucks for those who got RB3 this Christmas.

Yeah, that would be me.

Not much else to say other than... well... that sucks.

EDIT: Geeze Rol, at least have the decency to call me by my name.

You can still hope they release retail track pack discs.

For only $19.99. Yee haw!

Would probably only have country and hair metal bands too... I'm just out of luck.

You don't want to jam out to Garth Brooks or Taylor Swift?

It's sold more on the Wii than it did on the PS3, yet they pull the Wii support? Strange.

I actually played Band Hero during New Years Eve... and let me tell ya, there was all kinds of Taylor Swift going on that night.

But yeah... no. >_>

It says the reason in th article. While it may have a bigger userbase the online userbase and RBN demand is significantly less.

I'd have thought that with the Wii having 50,000 more units sold than the PS3 version, that a lot more people would use the service.

The wii is doomed *trollface*
