Wii Music: If anybody remembers it, three years ago Nintendo showed off a mini game style video game that let you play any instument you chose and now Nintendo is finally going to release it in Wii Music. The basic idea of the game is to just play your music instead of having to play a ton of notes that are coming down the screen to earn points. Wii Music will let you play over 50 instruments just by moving your arms. Some instruments like Drums will require you to use the Wii Balance board for the foot pedals. There is also a lesson mode for some instruments. Also the orchastra mode that was shown off by Shigiru Miyamoto will be included in Wii Music. You can also record and save your own music that you play in the game.
