Nintendo: Wii Music won't compete with the music game market

We would think so, considering that Wii Music is less of a game, and more of a toy, which makes it better than a game. Sorry for being so cynical, but come on, you have to be feeling the same way we do. But, onto the news at hand. Nintendo thinks Wii Music won't be competing with other music titles such as Rock Band and Guitar Hero.

Denise Kaigler, VP of Corporate Affairs at Nintendo of America, says "We're not competing [with those other games]. We're expanding. We're creating new experiences through Wii Music, new enriching opportunities for consumers to create something that's unique to their own musical tastes." Interesting, considering that all of these games generally fall into the same genre. But, the audience that would be receptive to Guitar Hero and Rock Band possibly could be different to that of the Wii Music crowd. It's kind of like a descending scale, from real musicians, to fake musicians (those would be the Rock Band and Guitar Hero crowds), and right down to people who like to play with toys. Toys like Wii Music.
