On October 20, Wii released its own version of “Rock Band” called “Wii Music.” “Wii Music” is like playing air guitar for all instruments. “Wii Music” uses songs from some of Nintendo’s classic games such as “Zelda Ocarina of Time,” the classic Mario games, and the songs on “DDR Mario Mix.”

“Wii Music” is a basic game that allows the player to play over 60 different instruments in the air. Some of the instruments include trumpet, drums, violin, piano, guitar, and base guitar. Each instrument is based on the buttons and the motion activated by the Wii remote and Wii nunchuk.

Sophomore Jake Hay enjoys the idea of “Wii Music” and likes to play the violin because he can’t really play the violin in real life. He also is thrilled to make his own tunes in the game because he believes that his songs are way better, but listening to the conductor isn’t fun.
