Rockapella Comes to Rock Band!

Any plans for more Rockapella in RBN 2.0?

Is there a number to call or a link to click that has an actual chance of being seen by RB people to let them know that new tracks for the Wii is a WANTED thing? I'm crushed... I spent $50 for a coaster.

Fairwood, if you knew that it wasn't going to be released for the Wii, why didn't you say that when I asked you a couple of months ago? I searched for an answer and couldn't find it before, that's why I asked. It doesn't help anybody's fanbase for you to trick people into buying RB3; I mean, sure they have my money for the 1 disc, but all that does is make me never want to buy their products, and possibly yours, again. $50 for a Rockapella rhythm game experience was cheap, but w/o the Rock', it's not an experience I want.

If you did indeed ask a couple of months ago (I can't find any evidence to that end, though I do have a lot of messages and questions to filter through) then it would have been well before the Wii RBN service was shut off. That happened in the middle of last month, shortly before Bang was released, but well after the song's initial announcement.

We didn't know that it wasn't going to be released on the Wii. We operate on the information we have, and if that information changes we correct it going forward. Up until Jan. 14th, we had every reason to believe it would come to Wii.

In that case, I apologize for phrasing like that. If they didn't tell you though, they're even worse than I thought. They should at least keep the companies in the loop. Just more reason for me not to waste cash on them. Thank you for authoring the Rockapella track though. It probably doesn't come across because I'm so angry over what RB did, but I really do appreciate it.
