BREAKING: Rock Band on Wii confirmed!

[thatmariolover]

The PS2 version of Rockband is nothing but a disappointment compared to the 360 version. Almost everything great about it is cut from the game. And the saddest thing is, if Nintendo doesn't open up their USB ports to an external hard drive or at least flash drives, the Wii version will be equally watered down; too many people are running out of flash memory as it is, and SD cards are too slow to load the mp3 and tabbing for four instruments continuously.

I'll hope for the best, but expect the worst.

The PS3 version is by far the best - minus the fact the guitars from Guitar Hero aren't compatable.

That's odd; I have over 90 songs on my SD card that I use for custom soundtracks in Excite Truck (a game far more demanding to horsepower), and I have zero issues with the speed of the flash memory.

Considering even 9MB/sec is overkill for audio on ANY console, I think Wii and SD throughput has it covered.

Perhaps you need to rethink that theory.
