The Wii, in its standard definition, waggle-filled lifetime has become the  home of the “party game.” De rigueur collections of mini-games that are designed to be simple slices of gaming, cut up and served for general public consumption. They are sometimes, as is the case with Warioware, deliciously addictive morsels; while more often than not, they’re the scrapings of the …

I guess you can’t blame the guy for doing his best to try and convince us all that Wii Music is really good but even he seems to be losing his excitement about the game now. In a recent interview with Edge magazine he states “I really don’t think that it will have the immediate and universal appeal around the …

Wii Music has become one of those games I am just absolutely fascinated with, it seems utterly pointless but Nintendo are pushing it really hard and are telling everyone who will listen that the game is really good if you just give it a try? Honestly I think they know the game is rubbish and are just testing the waters …

Some journalists in San Francisco have been chatting to Shigeru Miyamoto about his new attempt at a cult games, Wii Music. However by all counts the game just isn’t working and it looks like Wii Music may just be the first Wii cult title to fail horribly. I wasn’t aware of it but Wii Music was the first game ever …

I am not entirely sure what the deal is with Wii Music. How can you call something a game when you have such little affect on what is actually going on. To be honest, it looks as if I could get the same experience out of switching the radio on and handing out a couple of household goods to my friends and telling them to pretend that they are playing instruments. While there are currently only three reviews on Metacritic for Wii Music ( The other two being Gamespy: 70/100 and IGN: 50/100) I was rather amazed to see that 1UP had scored it a 91. It's starting to make me wonder if being a gamer means the same thing as it did a couple of years back. The short except from the review says the following: "Wii Music may have a hard time winning over the skeptics who just want to laugh at it, but give the game the chance it deserves. You just might realize it's pretty damn fun being in on the joke." Am I one of those skeptics that she is talking about? Maybe. I won't know until I have tried it. To score it in the same range as titles such as Resident Evil 4, Okami and Metroid Prime 3 just feels off to me. But hey, what the hell do I know, I am not one of the gazillion people out there who have forked out money on the Wii, even though they barely know how to turn a PC on. Maybe now that gaming has finally taken off, hardcore gamers are going to feel even more alienated than we were before. Maybe I should buy Wii Music. I don't want to feel left when all of my aunts start talking about it.

What you are about to witness, is an advert for Wii Music. Wii Music doesn't completely make sense to me. You can pretty much do what you want and still be apart of the songs. Which makes me wonder, why not just flip your television to MTV and wave your coffee mugs around instead? It's cheaper for starters, well, as long as you don't toss any of them into a wall. The sad fact is that this "game" is going to sell like hotcakes, even though I think that most people are going to only toy around with it a few times and then never touch it again. What also interests me and only serves to prove my point a little more, is that I could take the above video and replace the piano music with the sounds of bongo drums and most people wouldn't even realise. I know that Nintendo wants to make games that are interactive and easy to learn, but this barely makes you apart of the actual experience at all.

Okay I have done my very best to utterly ignore the upcoming Wii Music but this is just too much, I present to you the Sitar but it could have possibly been more aptly named the sh*tter. If the actors expression is anything to go by this game is going to bore you to sleep long before any star power …
