Wii - Wii Music - Malls Nationwide Feature Wii Music Street Performers Live musical performances have always been a fun part of the holidays. This year, Nintendo will be making spirits bright at family destinations and retail locations across the country with bands of street performers demonstrating Wii Music.

Now through the end of the month, the family trio of music-makers will entertain shoppers by turning the Wii console into a musical instrument with Wii Music, the new music game from Nintendo. Wii Music contains more than 50 songs and lets players use more than 60 different instruments to make their music, from melodic steel drums to soaring trumpets. To play, players simply use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers to make the same motions they would with a real instrument: Strum a guitar or pound the keys of a piano. The game challenges players to transform improvised notes into great music, while enabling the freedom to customize your song, instrument, genre, tempo and stage.

Wii - Wii Music - Nintendo defends Wii Music sales, says it's an "evergreen title" Wii Sports and Wii Fit have, for the most part, sold at astronomical rates. Though, the same cannot be said for the third brother in the family, Wii Music. Reported NPD numbers say that Wii Music sold more than 50,000 units, which isn't exactly terrible. However, compared to Wii Fit, Wii Music has garnered a less successful reception. Nintendo wholeheartedly believes in the game, however, and are more than willing to defend the game's sales...

Wii - Wii Music - Wii Music grooving into SA this November In addition to celebrating their first year in South Africa, Core Gaming recently held the launch of Wii Music in Johannesburg. Wii Music will be landing on South African shelves before Christmas so make sure you don't miss out on Nintendo's latest musical innovation because it's sure to fill many stockings this festive season.

It felt like something of a covert operation, the two Wii Music discs having been flown in especially for the launch that morning and returning back to Europe the very next day. We were given the chance to try our hand (and ears) at the game so make sure you read our preview to find out more about what makes it tick.

Wii - Wii Music - For Run DMC, Wii Music Isn't So Tricky Run DMC has told us before that "it's tricky to rock a rhyme that's right on time, it's tricky". Apparently, it's not so tricky for Run DMC-er Joseph Simmons (aka Reverend Run) to rock a beat on Nintendo's Wii Music. He even gets his kids into the groove and it goes from DJ turn-tables to beat-boxing. It really looks quite creative. Wiki-wiki-what!?

Hit the jump for the video.

Wii - Wii Music - Did Nintendo 'Jump the Shark' with Wii Music? Gamerdeals.net writes:

"'Jumping the Shark':

The phrase refers to a scene in a three-part episode of the American TV series, Happy Days, first broadcast on September 20, 1977. In the third of the three parts of the "Hollywood" episode, Fonzie (Henry Winkler), wearing swim trunks and his trademark leather jacket, jumps over a penned-in shark while water skiing.

Jumping the shark is a colloquialism used by TV critics and fans to denote that point in a TV show or movie series' history where the plot veers off into absurd story lines or out-of-the-ordinary characterizations. In the process of undergoing these changes, the TV or movie series loses its original appeal. Shows that have "jumped the shark" are typically deemed to have passed their peak.

The phrase has been used more recently outside the realm of popular culture, representing anything that has reached its peak and has turned mediocre."
