Wii Really Gonna Rock You Tonight….. Really?

guitar-hero.jpgWhy is the Wii getting the shaft from any of the major publishers? To prove the point let look at the wildly popular Guitar Hero franchise. A part of the game is to unlock all the songs, but to do so you have to play in the cooperative mode. This requires two guitar controllers. After picking up a combo of the game and a control I played for a few weeks, but it soon became not so much fun to keep passing around the one guitar controller. I thought a quick, maybe pricey, remedy was a short drive away at Target. Nope. Only combo packs, no single controls. Ok well I’ll give in and support the monster that is game chain stores. “Really, you don’t have any either and haven’t seen any?” Hmm, well lets go to the global supermarket, Amazon- What? What! The single controls are not available yet. But this game came out in October. Who thought of this? Is this some kind of marketing gone wrong or a careless mistake by Activision. I did a simple google search and found it on the toys r’ us site. 1/28/08 release date. Late January! Thats three months for the release of the game.What did the Wii do to deserve this.
