E3 2008: Samba downloadable songs available at launch
Posted by Graham. Filed under G, News, Nintendo Wii, Video. Tagged with E3 2008, Samba De Amigo.
Sega has released a new trailer for Samba De Amigo, telling gamers about the ability to download new songs, at the game’s launch.
It seems that there will be a good variety of song styles to choose from too. The advert shows off “Mamba Mamba” - which is a similar style to most of the songs on Samba already. Also shown is that pop classic “I Want Candy” and the more rock-oriented “Are You Going To Be My Girl?”
Still… no word on pricing, or file size. Something Nintendo may want to sort out - because with all these music/rhythm games coming out, with downloadable content - the Wii’s memory is going to fill up pretty damn quick!
Heck mine is full. Seems I can’t have several Virtual Console games and more than one WiiWare title - those WiiWare games use up a lot of memory, unfortunately.

Yeah, we need a Wii hard drive to use in that useless USB port.

Pretty nice song picks for DLC, IMHO.

Sorry for the double-post, but I hereby propose that “Monkey-Based Rhythm Game” shall be, from this point onward, recognized as an official game genre.
The first games in this budding category:
Samba de Amigo
Donkey Konga
Wii Music (It’s so simple, even a chimp can play it!)
