Weird, the wii u version appears on the listing if you search for guitar hero, but when you click on it, it takes you to the 360 version.
The 'Add to trolley' button picks up the correct version though if you are looking to buy / reserve.
Just to add to this, if anyone wants to use the Wii U and PS3 versions interchangeably, all you need is the game software disc as the USB receivers are identical. The USB receivers can be identified by the front button colour as follows.
Grey button: PlayStation 3 or Wii U
Blue button: PlayStation 4
Green button: Xbox 360
Black button: Xbox One
Guitar Hero TV requires 2GB cache on the Wii U....so if you have a Wii U basic you may need to consider memory space...otherwise graphically you are not really going to get much difference between any of them....its all overlayed video.
For anyone that doesn't already have it, the 6 button controls are a bit odd after using the 5 button controller for a decade. Once you get used to it it's a definite improvement, as they are 2 rows of 3 so you don't have to spread your fingers out so much.
The music selection on the disc leaves a LOT to be desired though, very few classic tracks & a lot stuff I've never heard of, though that may say more about me than the game!
There's 2 game modes "GH live" is a bit "Mad Dog McCree" cheesy, with real actors playing band members as you play in front of a real audience, who either cheer wildly or boo & chuck stuff...there's no middle ground.
"GHTV mode" is excellent though, it appears to be a good way of doing dlc, with the live music channels meaning you never know what you're going to get, but being able to earn/buy credits to keep the songs you want in your collection & the list is HUGE. A bit worried that the best part of the game could have the plug pulled at any minute though when Activision decide there's no profit in it any more.
Yup
Same. Does anyone have a link?
Nice one.
Same issue here
Been and collected my Wii U version, thanks OP.
While it can be played offline, it's a pretty limited selection of songs, definitely worth getting the version you can play online.
Thanks for pointing that out. I did wonder that when I saw the USB dongle. Managed to get the last WiiU copy in my local 10 stores today so might get the PS3 version for the 2nd guitar instead. Wife's playing through it as I type.
