THE MUSIC ON IT WAS RIDICULOUS

I thought of you and this blog the other day because (now bare with me) I played Wii for the first time with Ryan! -and it's so fun- But the music on it was ridiculous, just standard generic background stuff. Obviously games are getting more and more known for music, not only things like guitar hero, but other ones, like Fifa and even grand theft auto where you can change the radio stations in the car...

But on a gaming system like Wii, which is totally ideal for groups and party situations...you should be able to pick the music you want to listen to. Kinda kills too birds with one stone.

On top of that, (as well as on their own) music websites like Slacker and Pandora are great cause you can pick a specific genre of music you want to listen to. We use these at work a lot...they give a great variety, and they are great for finding new artists with a sound you like that are either new to the business all together or just new to me.

Add something like Slacker to the Wii and you'll have a great time playing with great music to go with it.

I don't know if this really helps...it's no secret that the record industry as we know it is dying out...so if you're looking for ways to adapt to the changing times...that could be one way.
