    I have a wii, and I've never felt like the games cost more than any other system. My brother's had different systems for as long as I can remember (he's 27, and I'm 24), and I can't ever remember games being cheap. He's had playstations, sega systems, super nintendo, all sorts of different ones, and they've all been around the same. Obviously, the older systems would drop the prices when newer ones came out, but that's about it.
    Really, considering the amazing things that you can do with a wii, I don't feel like $60 is that much for a game, especially this game. I play mine all the time, so is $60 worth huge amounts of fun, a new appreciation for the beatles music, and learning that my four year old loves them as much as I do? Absolutely.

    But look at rock band... They're too worried about freakin' xbox360 about what kinda good stuff they get without even concerning too much of the wii. the xbox is no different froma wii. they're both gaming consoles

    Helpful corrections added, though I'm not sure what the second paragraph is trying to say.Too many syntax and format errors.

    You think GH is better on the Wii than any Rock Band game? Then buy it and play it. Enjoy the smug superiority you feel when you do.

    Because it's really awesome that, in a Beatles sub-forum, you bring up complaints about a sister game that has nothing to do with the Beatles or the price of B:RB when it was released.

    But I'm glad you told us how you feel so persecuted as a Wii owner. I know I've never heard that before.

    I'm not here to get scolded at for my opinions as a Wii owner..

    Harmonix, believe it or not, made Guitar Hero for like the 1st or 2nd Guitar Hero

    And I like BOTH guitar hero and rock band, I play both, and I'm atleast happy enough that I can play atleast some song.

    I'm sure nobody on this forum knew that already. :rolleyes:

    As for your thoughts, I'm sorry but I don't see your complaints as justified. You have to pay $60 for one game? Big deal. Try being a 360 or PS3 owner and you'll see how easy you guys on the Wii have it money-wise. And besides that, $60 games are nothing new, even on the
    Wii, so you have no reason to start complaining about it now.
