Wii Music to be Released October 20, 2008

Brand: Nintendo

Product: Wii Music

Summary: A "game" with reportedly over 60 instruments to air-play (air guitar, air flute, air timpani, etc.) with the Wii remote and various Wii peripherals. Unlike Guitar Hero or Rock Band, Wii Music focuses on creativity over competition. It is definitely a polarizing game in the Wii Series catalog and probably best played with other people.

Price: About $50

Obviously: You'll need a Wii, several controllers, several nunchuk peripherals, and a Wii balance board to maximize the usefulness of "game." Yes, all that needs a TV and electricity, too.
