Why is not the rock band in the wii network

[DeferredGalaxy3]

The Wii U is very compatible with Wii games and so I would like to hope that these sort of things could transfer over.

On the other hand, Nintendo doesn't use an account system, and downloads are only licensed for the console they are bought on. (My Wii broke and when I got another one, all my DLC disappeared forever int he legal loopholes of Nintendo's company)

I remember talking to Nintendo about this. They said if your Wii broke, they will be able to keep your account as long as you didn't hack your Wii or anything.

Here's the full message:

Let me reassure you that as long as your system hasn't been modified we can preserve your Wii Shop Channel account as long as you have us repair your Wii console--no matter how long you've owned it. Our technicians will be able to preserve your Wii Shop Channel account, which contains the licenses of the Virtual Console and WiiWare games you've downloaded as well as any balance of Wii Points. You may end up having to re-download your games and channels, but there would be no cost to you for doing so. Conversely, if you decide to return or exchange your Wii console through the retailer, the Wii Shop Channel account would be lost.

...and if I understand, all Rock Band DLC is kept on the Wii Shop Channel servers. (Though it doesn't appear on the channel itself.)

I hope when they do port them to the Wii or Wii U, they better NOT do metal songs. I look at the list and there's 30 something rock songs for wii RBN, and 60 FRICKIN' METAL SONGS out of the 157 or so! Country seems to be a popular genre, I have read comments about people wanting country for Rock Band, and there is only 1 country song for RBN Wii.

I think the metal overload is an explanation for not selling much.

It's what sells on the other consoles so why not plus you can never have too much metal and the one country song isn't country. It should be labeled as Pop-Rock with the rest of the JoCo songs

You do know there's never going to be more RBN songs on the Wii right?

It just sounds like you might think there's going to be future RBN on the Wii, which isn't the case.

Oops. Did I make it sound like I thought they were? Let me rephrase me sentence: If they port them to the Wii or Wii U again, they better NOT do metal songs.

It's really hard to port country RBN songs when there aren't any.

They should totally blacklist a popular genre because a few people don't like it.

I've contacted a decent number of country bands to see if they wanted in the game. Only two responded (to say they weren't interested).

I think he's talking about metal not country.

You can't run, I feel like I live with you now.
