why not? is the same game as the other consoles, or are you just saying it should be 49.99 and it is not?

No other Wii games have been 60, why start now?

The reason why Wii games are cheaper than HD games is because Wii graphics are cheaper to produce. Less art production goes into Wii visuals.

But the big expense in music games isn't creating lush virtual worlds for people to explore, it's licensing the music. Licensing the music for the Wii version isn't any cheaper than licensing the music for the PS360 version, so there isn't much in the way of savings for the publisher for putting it on the Wii.

Hence, music games on the Wii are now bearing a $60 MSRP.

So why were they cheaper before?

well, i think the problems they have with the beatles catalog, there are a lot of rights to pay to different people who owns it, i think and that could be a reason but who knows, everyone will want it´s share.

Of course it should. EA and Activision are ripping off Wii owners. The Wii version is not an equal product of the PS3/360 versions.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
