E3 2008: Nintendo Press Conference -Wii Music

Nintendo is trying to step into the virtual music market with Wii Music, an application that puts 60 different instruments at the player’s disposal, all controlled with the Wii Remote. Wii Music has the amazing ability to turn any tone deaf player into a virtuoso (thanks to Nintendo’s idea of a pressure-free musical experience, with no mistakes, no score, just play).

That of course is far from answering the “Rock Band” and “Guitar Hero” hardcore players’ desires, but it sounds fun and relaxing for any casual gamer. The player can choose to play the violin, an electric guitar, steel drums and even a cowbell.

It may seem awkward at first, especially since you do it all with the Wii Remote, but once you’ve become accustomed to it, you can even give the musical arrangement a personal spin. These personalized musical arrangements can then be sent to Wii Friends over WiiConnect24. The Wii Music offer will be available in the United States for the holidays, Nintendo announced.
