Man, it’s crazy how much you realize Nintendo has an AMAZING history of iconic music that transcends generations and they didn’t use them in this game.
In hindsight, I think I know why they didnt...
Partway during this video I had to take a break to go listen to some GOOD music before coming back.
yknow......
If they tried to make a better version of Wii Music on the Switch featuring Exclusely Nintendo Tracks.....
It could be Really Good
We Could Be Air Guitaring out to the Mr Patch Theme
Conductig an Orchestra to perfom Diantha's theme
Making A Samba Rendition of The Masked Dedede Theme..
*Holding up a Joycon like a Microphone and pressing buttons in rythem while we pretend to sing along to Calamari Inkantation*
One of the few Nintendo games good or bad, that has terrible music….and it’s the fucking music game
@@bruceluiz Why?
I still remember the E3 where this game was revealed. The presentation was kind of depressing. Like watching a friend making a terrible mistake, but not being able to say anything to stop them.
Jaws were dropped.
I remember hearing the whole the whole thing was a bust that year; neither Sony nor Microsoft did much better, If at all.
@@Chaos89Pit was the start of the slow slow very slow downward spiral and eventual death of E3…
I think I died a little inside from watching that clip......was this how fans felt too cause yikes. Not a good sign for the game.
That whole E3 was a train wreck
Trombone champ definitely succeeds in what this game is. It embraces the stank of playing the instruments but focuses on the charm and weirdness.
wii music crawled so that trombone champ could fall down the stairs
@@larsthememelord3383 I used to play trombone, can confirm Trombone Champ is excellent at falling down stairs. ;)

Ba bum bum bum 234
IM SURPRISED YOUR COMPUTER ISNT BROKEN YET POOF
well well well its my favorite youtuber
they ripped it to bite-sized pieces but wii music is still inedible
How many remotes died when you played this game?
It's funny how many game designers miss the most basic concept behind any game like this: Easy to learn, fun to play, hard to master.
No matter how basic, realizing ideas will always be hard. In this sense they put a music producer in the director's chair & basically just let him do whatever without guidance, & while he is a very talented musician he is not a talented game director.
they are laughing at a kids game. What do you expect?
@@michellefernandez3155 Frankly? I expect veteran game designers at a veteran game development studio to understand the simple concept that, for a game to be positively received, it needs to be easy to learn, fun to play, and hard to master.
17:57 Well... ho ha eary!
@@ScrambledAndBenedictits not that serious
15:13 As someone who played in church bells before, I can confirm that sometimes you ring the bells at lot doing one song, and other times only one or twice.
Yes I have memories of church bell choir everyone had 2 but this lady had about 8 bells in front of her and yeah the larger deeper ones are usually rung once
You know what's confusing about this game? If you search Wii Music on CZcams, you'll find the entire OST of the Wii Operating System
SPAM COMMENT BOTS ARE NOT ALLOWED
Well to be fair, *that* music shaped a generation. I’m in my 20s and I still hear the Wii Shop channel music in my dreams every now and again (although I still use my Wii so that might be the reason), so when you look up Wii Music, that’s probably what most people are looking for.
This game is unironically what got my into rhythm games as a child. It was bad, but I still kept going back because I loved turning on the rhythm game mode rather than just the freestyle beats. When i learned better rhythm games existed, I was so happy. I thought Wii Music was the only one!
Yeah that part of the game and the minigames where fun If you weren't playing to an actual song with the notes up it wasn't good
Wii Music is the reason i took an interest in music production
Aww that’s sweet
Oh Bless you so much if this was your only rhythm game experience. XD It can ONLY get better from here! Heck check out Jung Rhythm, notoriously unplayable but the music actually slaps, especially Picasso, and no I'm not being sarcastic I genuinely like the music, but the gameplay is... impossible according to those who did play it.
Wii Music is mainly fun when you just go wild and see what monstrocity it produces
Trying to get the song perfect is also pretty fun
Indeed it is
I never played it, but it seems like a good drinking game
Same here. This game can be pretty funny to listen. Somehow sometime, it does sound kind of good if you improvise
@@antogame1178Did you mean to make it near-rhyme?
"Are you mad?"
Considering how deep they are into this series, yes
Aren’t we all mad when it comes to something?
Yeah lol I immediately thought of all the insanity they've subjected themselves to by now, especially Shane with the Worst Ever consoles. And "GUNDAMMMM!!!!!!!!"

You know it's a good game when the people in the ad, who are there to sell you the game by showing you their excitement, just stand there even more awkwardly than a person with social anxiety trying to speak to a room full of people.
You already know it’s gonna be good when Rerez is starting to get to the iconic bad games
Except their entire argument about bashing Nintendo games falls flat, when you realize their previous just bad games about some hunting game was also a wii game. Also still no sign of duke Nukem forver dlc episode that they said they'd do 2 years ago if the video reached 1 million views, and yet it's 1.3 million and no episode yet, so they aren't keeping their own promises.

(It's impossible for me to remember this game without also remembering Nintendo's E3 2008)
I rather play Rhythm Heaven than this game
Yeah that was such a train reck.
Over 60 instruments and they couldn't make them sound good. This is a good example of overshooting with gimmicks (which are essentially identical to eachother) and failing on the substance.
@@maddie_sarverIt is like saying you would rather drink water than piss.
@@AmaryInkawultThis is a good example of how incredibly gimmicky Wii motion controls as a whole were. They were fun for the time, but… we have VR now.
28:54 This point is interesting - there are plenty of rhythm games out there that cut down the length of songs, but they're usually arcade rhythm games where time spent not putting more money into the machine is effectively time wasted, so you want to be efficient with how much playtime the player gets on each credit.
Thing is, Wii Music isn't a freaking arcade game. There is no time pressure. Maybe Nintendo thought casual players would find it too exhausting to sit through all four minutes of Every Breath You Take. Given this is Wii Music we're talking about, I'd be inclined to agree.
i thought that this was just a standard thing rhythm games did regardless of where they were originally released. i know project diva does the same and it first came out on the psp.
A friend that I was living with for a time barged into my room one day with his PS2, bragging about how skilled he was at Guitar Hero (after less than a day of playing on Easy), and without permission, hooked his console up to my TV/stereo system and proceeded to demonstrate several tracks. Finally, he opened up the door to his own demise by asking if I had any requests.
Being strongly opposed to people who are braggarts, I requested "Jessica" by Allman Brothers Band, knowing fully that it was a complex tune AND had a runtime of 7:31. About halfway through the song, he was missing more notes than he was hitting, and during the bridge his hands were cramping up. 🤣
After that, he was so angry with me that he disconnected his PS2 from my TV/stereo in a huff, and went back to his own room. He didn't learn his lesson about bragging without the goods to back it up, but at least I got him out of my room for the day!
@@NegaPosiminusplus some games do, some games don't. Project Diva is one game lol
@@NegaPosiminusplusi mean guitar hero got the full version of through the fire and the flames and that is a long song
It depends between games tbf. Some older DDR mixes (one I remembered being DDR 5th mix) and later Pump it Up also have full songs that takes 2 songs worth of playthrough (so if 1 credit gives you 3 normal songs to play, these full songs will take 2 of the 3 normal songs alloted). I think it's a good compromise between making sure 1 person doesn't play it for too long and having full songs that a player could play.
I forever associate Dragonforce with walking down the halls in highschool and overhearing two kids talking about how great Dragonforce was. I stopped and did a literal double-take wondering why tf they were talking about an obscure but great Sega Saturn game.
Before I could go over and extoll how great Leon is I realized it was a band or something. lol
I like that they brought Darth Maul to play drums on that weird 2008 E3 presentation.
Also, if you're wondering why the game sounds so bad, it's because they're probably using a rather limited variation of the GS Sound Set, which is basically the same instrument bank you'll find in any cheap YAMAHA or CASIO keyboard, and one of the simplest synthesizers to implement on any device.
All those songs they included look like the demo songs on an electric piano too
In that case, they could've included Canyon.mid. Missed opportunity of the century.
Technically it's because they are using an off-the-shelf synthesizer to create those sounds. General MIDI only specified what instruments should be available, not how the noises are generated. You can have very high quality synthesized sounds generated in response to MIDI, but either Nintendo decided not to license a good software synth or they were worried that the Wii's CPU couldn't handle anything better.
@@3rdalbum You're correct. General MIDI is the protocol used to talk to _any_ synthesizer or sound bank, which can be very good or bad. I wasn't very clear in my original comment, so I made an edit. Thanks for pointing this out!
@@jmal This made me chuckle more than I expected. XD

So kiss mynass Frankie, but you'll have to wait in line!
Not going to lie; I was in college when this game came out, and being obsessed with everything Wii, I got this game, took it home, and played the heck out of it for like...a little less than a week. It was entertaining for a short time, once I got a bit of the hang of it, but my biggest disappointment was that the game didn't have a "composer" mode like Mario Paint. When the trailer mentioned "composing you're own creations," I thought that's what they meant. Instead, it's basically a big midi remixing program.
FALSE FREAKIN' ADVERTISING. WHAT THE HECK NINTENDO!?!?
One thing both Rockband and Guitar Hero did right was they didn't just have popular songs. They had songs that most people hadn't heard before or it wasn't very often they heard them and they also were really good songs so playing either of those games also had players discovering new favorite songs. It's really too bad Wii music couldn't do what those games did.
Anyone who loves music had heard those songs before .
True, I learned about lots of songs from Guitar Hero that I really liked but had never heard before.
@@andrewcruz1931 I assure you that you did not know every single song on every single Guitar Hero release lol. It wasn't all Ozzy and the Beatles, there were actual independent artists mixed in
This one was also kind of late to the rhythm game craze. Late 2008 was by no means the end but we were 3+ years deep into the craze and this was just before activision really started churning out GH sequels like a sweat shop and Rock Band was already pissing people off with it's excessive DLC. The bubble pretty much popped shortly after this came out.
Naah, 2008 was tame compared to 2009. Metallica, Smash Hits, 5, Band Hero, DJ Hero, and Van Halen ALL released in 2009 ALONE. 2008 had Aerosmith as an appetizer, then World Tour as the holiday release, with the first two DS Games as companion experiments, comparing that to SIX console titles, two of them ushering in new hardware? Not even close.
There was a game where you could use a real guitar
@@lightninstriker10 And also Rock Band 2 and a couple of track packs but yeah 2009 was just a big rock and roll time and even then it can get tiring. Especially in that time where they're still being released with a guitar or band set which almost anyone I know at the time have one and probably still but it still doesn't help to sell nearly at $200 even if the set list was something like VH just being Wolfegang's Ipod for guest songs.
@@lightninstriker10 I think you misunderstood my point. I was saying this came out right at the beginning of the end of the rhythm game craze. I mean this POS was probably literally the beginning of the end, this came out on October 22, 2008. Rock Band was already pissing people off with it's DLC, Activision was preparing it's army of GH games and now Nintendo just dropped a turd on everyone. If you want to point to the exact moment the bubble popped, you'd have a good argument this game was when it happened.
I never played this one as a kid, me and my friends were to busy having a blast with Wii sports and Wii play, and I’m sure everyone would rather be playing those instead
What was Wii Play? I had Sports and Link’s Crossbow Training.
@@Jolis_ParsecWii Play was some assorted mini games involving the use of the nunchuck, which was new at the time. Most of these games were multi-player and pretty fun like tanks or pool. Nothing super amazing, but fun for the time.
@@tylerrusnak7736 Ah, okay, thanks.
@@Jolis_Parsec You're welcome. I remember them being pretty decent. Mostly wasn't that heavy on motion controls I recall. Probably would be decent even today.
I guess I'm the only one who has more fun playing wii music than wii sports.
The single tuba note had me dying!
I have good memories from playing this. I was once at a neighbours house and they had the game. All of the kids here knew it was bad, but no one was currently playing the wii, so I booted it up because i just wanted to know how bad it was.
I tried two songs, I think it was the zelda theme and mute city. I would always try to go with the rythm, but I ended up just giving up and shaking the wiimotes to make the worst thing as possible.
The funniest things about it you ask? The neighbours had a third party sensor bar that worked as much as mcdonalds ice cream machine. So using the pointer was horrendous. So when the game asked to do a cover art, I tried hard to point, and then it registered me putting a mii on the cover. and I found out that the sensor bar has a problem with detecting the distance separating the bar and us. So what I ended up is a very very close up shot of a mii's face. It took me 2 minutes to catch my breath because I was laughing so hard.
Good times
Did you now if you pressed - the notes would pop up making it easier? Or were you already using that?

@@alwaysamongdragons7354 Howard the Duck is one of my faves and it's Definitely not objectively good. Every complaint about it is true. However, I still love it despite, and even because of all its flaws.
I think there’s a specific reason that they had such a simple music lineup. They were so focused on accessibility and familiarity with the most casual of casuals, going in with the same ethos as Sports of “let’s make sure that someone who hasn’t touched a video game before can be familiar with this” and also have it be family friendly and such.
Eh, at least they have the music box music from FNAF 2 in there
Imagine calling it the music box music from FNAF 2, that hurts my soul.
Pretty much. The one thing Nintendo did not want with the Wii was to be seen as something that was not family friendly. Otherwise known as the lowest common denominator.
Even then, the orchestra in the "Mii Maestro" minigame depicts several instruments which aren't actually playable in the rest of the game, including "Instrument Improv". In addition, the version of Vivaldi's "Spring from "The Four Seasons" is only playable in Mii Maestro. Not to mention that there are many styles of music in the game which aren't directly outlined but are only labeled when accessing a song in the "Quick Jam" mode. Some examples are: French Bistro, Country, Synth-Rock, "Parade", and Funk.
"Wii Cacophony" would have been a far more accurate title. (Plus, those Miis happen to have strong lungs on the tuba clip)
Wasn’t one of the working titles for Will music Will Tinnitus? And wasn’t there another one called Will Earitants?

How did they not have a trombone?! The instrument you move to play!!
And thus Trombone champ was born
Because the wii-mote isn't accurate enough to capture the motions required to play to a trombone.
Or to be more specific, the wii-mote isn't accurate enough to capture the motion that the trombone uses to control pitch and they refused to use the buttons, so they don't have a way to control when you play a note and the note's pitch at the same time.

That's disrespectful to kindergarten music recitals. This music-themed "game" was butchered beyond belief by a bunch of Laughing Joking Numbnuts who probably tried to program the whole doggone thing in an hour.
Guitar hero was amazing. Me and my family had so much fun - just one more song! Wii music was next level in the franchise. Who doesn't remember the classics "many slaughtered cats" and "torture to your ears"? Headphones sold like hotcakes to spare family members. What's not to celebrate!?
I’m very surprised the DK Bongos and the Donkey Konga games weren’t mentioned as a point of comparison. Nintendo (in collaboration with Namco) were ahead of the curve when it came to peripheral-based rhythm games, it’s a shame they dropped proper support for the DK Bongos in the Wii era.
Now i need a wii music spin off but only bongos songs... play metroid tunes with the bongos
Isn't there clapping in some Asian "magic"?
I'm not sure, but considering what other things have been made into games...
XD
Same I could say with Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix, yeah sure is a dance game which is totally different but still it was a rhythm game, targeted to casual audience and require movement (if you played in the dancepad), and the main thing is that the game was fun to play, had a campaign mode with story and you can win-lose on it and get a rating of your perfomance.
Man I absolutely love that game!
If anything, Nintendo was behind the curve as even PS2 version of Taiko no Tatsujin released earlier, not to mention Konami's Beatmania, DrumMania and Guitar Freaks.
I'm going to be devil's advocate: this game has a LOT of instruments, which are actually very useful as demonstration during music lessons in junior school.
My mom (kindergarten teacher) uses this game for that and it's a good way to show the kids loads of instruments without actually having them.
Little known fact, but 19:15 is the same sound that will be made when our world finally comes to an end.

30:49 what is even more sad is that super smash bros brawl have ~300 music. And it was not even the main focus compare to wii *MUSIC*
15:12 trust me that also happens when doing it in real life, sometimes you'll have a bell for a note that's only used a couple times in the whole song

Even Rock Band got the shortened version thing right. You had both the long and short versions as an option.
Guitar Hero is what got me interested in actually playing the guitar. Good times.
I know theres this joke about how people got over the wiis gimmick and it became a dust collector in many living rooms, but i miss my wii so damn bad. I really wish I kept mine.
The music quality we heard in this game reminds me of the era of SoundBlaster clones/compatible cards on PC with sub-par MIDI chips.
They couldn't even make the SOUNDS right.
It's like a cheap keyboard from the early 2000s
As someone who plays this game way too much (I guess I just a masscoist for playing Wii Music, I don't know why myself). This review pretty much hits the nail on the head when it comes to everything that's wrong with this game.
It surely is *JUST* that *BAD*.
Yet its still quite the nostalgia trip for me kind of.
I mean your propbly to forst peoe to point out the werid double note bug that happens from the imput sonetimes. I havent been aware of anyone else pointing that out prior to your video.
As a composer, Wii Music really hurts to watch and hear. Nintendo should have known better, especially since their "Music Maker" in Mario Paint on the SNES was (and still is) a hit in terms of music composition.
I think I either have terrible ears but wii music is really pleasing to me. I don't know if it is cause I'd hold out some of the notes and not just tap thr buttons. But yeah the tutorial is very painful to listen to.
I just remembered that Nintendo also made the Donkey Konga games as a collaboration with Namco for the GameCube... several years before the Wii Music disaster. Even though the first Donkey Konga also had kids' songs in the track lists, they were arranged by skill level and mixed with (much better) Latin American jazz and ska arrangements of Nintendo music.
22:33 Sad thing is that Nintendo themselves actually made a keyboard piano controller for the NES game called the Miracle Piano Teaching System in 1990.
I can't believe I missed those E3 demonstrations until now. That is soul cleansing.
i never would have thought wii music would be up here, i used to play this a lot as a kid and somehow my 6 year old mind actually enjoyed this game
Ah... One of Nintendo's more *infamous* games... You guys are certainly brave!

wii music really felt like a tech demo, in retrospect
In my early childhood, I grew up playing games like Sonic the Hedgehog, Shadow Dancer, Rock N' Roll Racing, etc. While other kids were raised with games like Wii Music and others that relied on the console's motion controller. I wonder what they're up to these days?

This can't be understated for the younger generations. Nintendo hyped this game up like it was going to change the induatry. Miyamoto said he was proud to make this. And then E3 2008 happened, and then it released as a bare bones tech demo that would be a disappointing launch title, and you have wii hardware and software sales noticably decline afterwards.
'Younger generations' like you're not 22 😭
Twinkle twinkle little star, your performance left me scarred

Two words that shows that Nintendo had it figured out already a generation prior:
Donkey Konga.
Hey remember the first one where donkey Kong commanded the universe
And let’s also not forget Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix, and in the same era as the Wii there was Elite Beat Agents.
I used to play this one and I was too young to realize how uh, simple Wii Music was. Wonder how my parents remember it…
I remember playing Wii Music a lot back in the day and I was very numb to the fact that people consider the game garbage. Nowadays, I can see how flawed it is, but it did help me get into music in general as it had my mum get me into piano. So, if Wii Music was good for anything, it got me into music
This is one of THOSE games,

Every breath you take on Wii music also seems faster than it should be.
Honestly, when i played this game with my brothers when I was younger, we all thought is was dumb fun and that's it, that's all we needed it to be
Man I remember someone telling me this game was going to be revolutionary. Gonna be a good episode.
I hope you don't talk to that person anymore.
@@koolaid33 Don’t say things like that.
So many youtubers have bashed this game over the years; now it’s Rerez’s turn and I’m excited!
Adding to the list of missed opportunities, they could have added a custom music composer like they did with Mario Paint.
Not only Guitar Hero/RB had high quality masters of original songs, they also had the individual stems for them. The guitar track, drums, vocals, etc, all separated, especially in the later releases. You could adjust their volumes individually to make the songs sound the way you like them. Want to hear the bass more in A Justice for All? Guitar Hero had you covered like no other official CD/LP release could. You never had this level of control in officially released songs and after the bubble burst, you probably never will again.
I have a soft spot for this Wii game. I had a lot of fun with it and every time I play it I’m teleported back to a simpler time
Damn straight.

Nice video, although I really enjoy Wii music. I think it would have been better as a more educational experience, but I think it’s a fun musical toy box
I remember playing this. Didn't take it seriously, unlocked all the tunes, and then promptly forgot about it for other, more interesting titles.
24:25 I've heard better time being kept at a elementary school band concert than this.
Can't wait for the inevitable E3 footage of this game in this review.
Edit: And I was not disappointed!
23:20 Smile through the pain. 😂😂😂😂😂
I got this game for Christmas one year and all I remember is the F Zero theme was just 1212121212121212 for the _whole song._ I played it once and sold it to GameStop.
It seems weird that rerez is changing their thumbnail on just bad games videos, cause I really loved the old ones!
Scott The Woz would is beaming with excitement that Rerez is talking about Wii games!
Rerez has lots of videos on Wii games, it's how we all know by now how much they hate forced motion controls
Don't worry. It gets worse.
Wii Music isn't the only bad game Nintendo has put out.
certified pokemon classic
I personally think that they aren’t “bad” games. Nintendo is the kind of company where even their “worst” games have good aspects to them.
PLEASE don’t call me names for saying this, but I think bad games from Nintendo are SUPER RARE.
@benmalsky9834 Hard disagree. Mario Sports Superstars (which is the worst Nintendo game I've played) is terrible because of how boring it is. And that's coming from a guy who thinks Mario Strikers Battle League is a OK game.
@@Yoshizuyuner You've got that right. Just take a look at Sword & Shield.
For me this game will always be that hilarious mess of an E3 presentation.
It will live rent free in my brain somewhere till my dying day.

Their ceremony of tomfoolery...
Has awoken The Elder Gods!...
I was wondering if there was a Nintendo title that would qualify for this show… of course, why didn’t I think of Wii music before?
Oh there are more. Don't think this is the worst that Nintendo has vomited into our hands before, oh no no.
They could always do Green Lantern Rise of the Manhunters on the Wii.
Was… not expecting this.
I remember this.
0:30 well this isn't the big N's first rodeo with bad gaming with examples being donkey kong jr math and after they made wii music they also made chibi robo ziplash, animal crossing amiibo festival, mario tennis ultrasmash, mario party 9 and 10, Mario Party Star Rush, Mario Party: the top 100, Mario Party Island Tour and hey pikmin
I think they forgot to mention Donkey Konga.
A list of licensed music that are longer than what Wii Music offered. It differs from region to region, but that's to be expected.
I saw that Wii had a 4th chicken hunt game out there. I think it may have to be done
