Yudo is working music game for WiiWare, which means Aero Guitar doesn’t come with a plastic guitar shell. Waving the Wii remote is the way to hit the scrolling notes. Similar to Daigasso! Band Brothers DX, Aero Guitar supports user generated content. Starting in June, Yudo will accept submissions and open up a music creation community in the future. After the game goes live users will be able to download additional songs, which will probably cost extra Wii Points. At the price of 800 Wii Points ($8) the profit margin for Aero Guitar is too slim for Yudo to give out weeks and weeks of free songs.
Aero Guitar comes out in Japan this summer and sometime later in other regions. Interestingly, Yudo will bring release this game in North America and Europe which will make them one of the few Japanese WiiWare developers to launch and international title.

A Wiiware title is the first to have downloadable songs… This must be the indication of an upcoming storage unit. Right?
On another note, what a pun, the game seems like simple fun and the Band Brothers similarity seems a positive, but the game also reminds me of Battle of the Bands which is a not so good similarity.
