In Wii Music, players use the Wii Remote to control a band consisting of six members. Due to the Wii only allowing up to four players to actually play with the same control scheme, Wii Music only allows up to four players to actually play in the same band. The remaining two positions are filled by computer players. In the single player mode, the player can control up to four of their bandmates, once again meaning that the other two are filled by computer players.

As tradition mandates every year, I sat watching the Nintendo's 2008 E3 presentation with high hopes of a new F-Zero being finally announced. As the presentation moved along, Cammie Dunnaway kept pushing products that were clearly not targeted at me and my generation of core gamers, bought up in the mean streets of 8- and 16-Bits. No harm there, since Nintendo's and the late great Satoru Iwata's new vision of "games for everyone" meant that there was a whole new audience to whom Nintendo had to push product presentations. I understood that, and was feeling positive because surely there had to be some sort of killer app being shown at the end of the presentation, right?
I couldn’t help but be surprised when I began noticing (from time to time) patterns in the way music is used within games. The following short list of game soundtrack stereotypes and patterns are by no means the result of a scientific process, but I do think it would be interesting to dip the metaphorical toe in the water and start this discussion!
I was expecting an article about the entire industry. This is sort of the norm for these types of games though.
" many core gamers will feel like they are being ripped off by the game’s hefty price tag. "
Yeah cozz thats great logic right?
the hefty price tag is to earn back develop costs, promotion costs, transportation costs and what not.
less challenging =/= less money.
