Tag: Wii NewsPrattP @ 11:42 pm

Nintendo’s “musical toy” Wii Music has been dated in the US. The “game” gives players the choice of more than 60 instruments and over 50 songs in a variety of styles like popular, licensed, classical and Nintendo themes, with the ability to ‘play’ along or improvise and add new beats or twists to it. Simply select the instrument and move the controller as if you were actually playing the real thing. The game will also have the ability to send the remixed songs to friends via the Wii Message Board letting them add their own personal spin to the song.

Wii Music will hit the US on October 20, later here of course.
