Rock Band for Wii, Two

Joystiq comes through with the rest of my questions about the Wii Rock Band. In addition to not having downloadable content, you can’t create your own characters and you can’t use your Guitar Hero III controller. Yet it costs the same as the 360 and PS3 versions. Seems like they should at least knock $10 or $20 off the price tag, being that you’re getting fewer features. I get that maybe the online stuff wasn’t possible because Nintendo’s been inexcusably slow at developing that portion of the console, but the lack of character creation just reeks of laziness, and the price of greed. At this point I can’t see myself buying this game. Maybe they’ll get it right for 2.
