Today only, get two Wii Frontman Wireless Guitars for $20 when you buy Guitar Hero Aerosmith or Guitar Hero 3 for Wii. For only about $55, you can get started with the Guitar Hero series on the Wii.
On September 23rd, we’re all going to be exposed to a new Sega title for Wii, which seems to be a la DDR, Guitar Hero, and al of those games that we love to play that follow patterns (or Tap, Tap, Revenge for the iPhone users out there). This one is different in the fact that you’ll be shaking your wiimote and nunchuk like maracas, because this is a maraca-shaking game. If you’re into reality maracas-shaking, get a pair. Yep, they’re available for pre-order, with the game.
Samba De Amigo has a pretty long list of tunes to shake shake shake along with, and with downloadable content, you’ll be shaking yourself into the ER.
Game list:
(and did you know that there was arcade version of this?!)
Classic songs from the original Samba de Amigo:
Youtube user “jbreckman” hacked his Guitar Hero Wii guitar controller with several combinations of playable notes using half and full presses of the whammy bar, the power mode (raising the guitar), and a few others. Check out the video!
Check out some videos from Gametrailer about the newest Guitar Hero release, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith.
First, the release trailer:
Then, check out Steven Tyler talking about making the game.
A blog we ran across this weekend, WiiSpin, posted a full track listing for the new Guitar Hero: Aerosmith game. There’s a lot of Aerosmith on there (yeah, hence the name of the game) but it’s not a full discography.
Tier 2: “First Taste of Success” (Max’s Kansas City)
Tier 3: “The Triumphant Return” (The Orpheum)
Tier 4: “International Superstars” (Moscow)
Tier 5: “The Great American Band” (Half Time Show)
Tier 6: “Rock N Roll Legends” (Rock & Roll Hall of Fame)
Bonus Songs (The Vault)
Thanks be to WiiSpin for the info!
Also, check out pricing for both the game, and the Guitar Hero: Aerosmith bundle with guitar.
I went looking for some Rock Band accessories links last night, and I figured that it was time for someone to do an all-inclusive post of the gear available for Rock Band for Wii.
It’s time for that post.
There is, of course, the Rock Band for Wii Special Edition - including the guitar controller, drum controller, microphone, USB Hub and game software. This seems to be a pretty big seller right now. You can also purchase just the game disc as well.
The Rock Band Track Pack, Vol. 1 is available for pre-order, to be released on July 15. This includes:
You’re also going to need to know about the game accessories and must-haves:
The Rock Band for Wii Guitar Controller - remember, the Rock Band and Guitar Hero controllers are NOT - I repeat, NOT COMPATIBLE.
The Rock Band for Wii Microphone - These are from Logitech, and IMHO they have THE BEST accessories out there. Logitech’s Playstation 2 wireless controllers are the finest I have had the pleasure of using… and funny enough, in writing this article, I just discovered that they’re ten dollars off right noe. SO if you also appreciate PS2, go get these. I highly recommend it. I have had mine for two years, and they’re still solid. I am assuming that their Wii Microphone will hold up to the same scrutiny.
Rock Band for Wii - Light-Up Drumsticks! In Blue or Red.
3-in-1 Rock Band/Guitar Hero Kit - this accessory has a gig bag for your guitars (with lots of pockets), a guitar controller strap, and a guitar stand. It’s good for your Wii Rock Band OR your Wii Guitar Hero pleasure.
The Rock Stand - a 2-guitar controller stand for Rock Band for Wii or Guitar Hero for Wii. You can also use this for controllers for PS2, PS3, and XBox, but WeKnowWii here, so you can imagine which we’re gonna use it for…
For you roadies out there: The Rock Icon guitar case. This case is an aluminum road case for your Rock Band or Guitar Hero guitar controllers, your came console, games, cables, and the kitchen sink. For the true die-hard traveling player. It’s also on sale right now.
Last but definitely not least… Rock Band for Wii Drum Pad Covers. These pads reduce noise by up to 50%, and are easy to remove and apply. Get them fast though, they’re ridiculously popular, and have been in and out of stock for a while.
WeKnowWii.com hopes that this helps you. We’ll be updating as soon as we find new stuff!
For all you Guitar Hero fans, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is coming out for retail release on June 29! Go order yours now, because we hear this is supposed to be pretty awesome.
Check out the trailer below:
Holy Crap, new Guitar Hero World Tour news! We’re going to see a new guitar controller, and unfortunately, a $179.99 price tag. From Nintendic:
Developer Neversoft and publisher Activision will have wanted to keep a few key details about Guitar Hero World Tour secret, at least until next month’s E3, but it now appears that the cat has been let out of the bag - specifically, details about the fancy new guitar peripheral that is planned to ship with the rhythm/music title.
Leaked information on Guitar Hero World Tour claims that the game will cost $179.99 USD when released, bundled with the guitar, drums, and microphone. As for the brand new guitar, it is said to be touch-sensitive, with a ‘Neck Slide’ that opens up the whole neck of the instrument for unbound solos and extra freedom to improvise whilst rockin’ out.
A few of the artists on the GHWT game: Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Foo Fighters, Smashing Pumpkins, Korn, System of a Down, Ozzy Osbourne, Interpol, Muse, and “dozens more” promised.
We’ll see Guitar Hero World Tour on October 27 and October 28 in the US and Europe, respectively.
This week, Toys “R” Us has the Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock with Guitar bundle on sale for $69.99 plus shipping. That’s $20 off the regular retail price. Shipping will run you about $8.
