So the motion mimics... what? Hitting the dog to make it bark? Oh, PETA is just going to love this...



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.

They're obviously not the target audience


There is a target audience? Wow don't want to see them. Even the girl demonstrating this "game" looked bored to hell and a bit embarrassed.

It's not a game for me, but it will sell well, many people that dont consider themselves gamers will pick it up. It get a lot of bashing but i think it an interesting concept. And i will try it out once my sister buys it :)

BUT THIS IS THE PENULTIMATE ONE!

miyamoto had three ideas with the console, wii sports wii fit and wii music. wii play and wii sports resorts are 'spin offs' as it were

@Gamerace: Isn't that the case with any game? Too expensive for pre-schoolers?

You miss my point or perhaps I wasn't clear.   Wii Sports drove Wii sales. Wii Fit drove Wii Sales.  If Wii Music does only end up appealing to pre-schoolers, no one (except those with tons of cash) will buy a Wii so their 3 year old can play Wii Music.  If they already own a Wii, they might buy it, for $20-30 but probably not for $50.

I'm sure it probably is fun but it looks like really fleeting fun and won't hold anyone's attentions long enough to warrent a purchase (except for pre-schoolers).

What is everyone's problem with Wii Music. It's a casual alternative to the popular music games on the market. This is not a Guitar Hero/Rockband solution.

I think most people are just terrified this might actually usurp the standard of Guitar Hero/Rockband.

 Scared? Seems this game has everyone nervous, afraid of how well it will do?

I imagine you'd be just as critical of Little Big Planet if it were a Wii Casual game too. ;)

Now I'm no hardcore gamer, but this game looks terrible. I thought WiiPlay was a waste of time...This looks even worse. Please Nintendo: You have enough money. Don't sell-out like this.

 

I don't think parents agree with you.

 

What is your point?  Wii Music is nothing like playing a keyboard or toy piano.
