So yesterday I went shopping and came across Wii Music for $15.
Usually my mum doesn't let me buy this kind of stuff, but since I owed my sister $5 and only had a $20 note on me, she obliged :)
I have to admit, I didn't really have too high a hope for this game, it seemed a bit funny...
Plus it was only $15, so you know.
According to the dodginess scale, the cheaper something is, the more likely it is to suck.
Unless it's free; in which case, yay!
...
Anyway, I went home and put the sparkly disc into my Wii and was greeted by a jarring intro chord I'm not sure was tonal.
Not exactly a great start.
But then I got to the game section, and it was actually quite fun! I selected my Mii and we played music games which involved "pick the player with the highest pitch" and "arrange the players into the three-part harmony heard in the speakers". Woo! Theory!
And Oh Wow the actual jamming XD
I'd post an excerpt up but I haven't quite figured out how to transfer it from my Wii yet :P
You get to choose over 50 different instruments, and apart from oversimplifying the playing, they actually sound realistic. Apart from the Bass Flute. That sounds like Farts :P
Being a singer, I naturally chose the vocalist, and... lol.
If you've ever played animal crossing, you'll know what it sounds like.
I 'sang' a bit of "Scarborough Fair" (an olden favourite of mine) and my sister picked the harmonising vocalist :) it was a woderful duet, since the system not only allows you to play the song syncopated or in other tempos, it allows you to improvise and stuff :3 Yay!
And then my mum came and started raining on the congas XD
Anyway, I think that's all I'll write without spoiling anything today :P It is fun. Go play. Hilarity ensured.
That is all,
Pie :3
