LEGOs have been used to make an oversized Nintendo DSi and now it is being used in rock and roll video games. The new game is a collaboration between Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, TT Games, Harmonix, and MTV Games.
Some of the songs included in the LEGO version of Rock Band will include Song 2 (Blur), Kung Fu Fighting (Carl Douglas), Boys and Girls (Good Charlotte), and So What (Pink).
“Players will be able to create their own Lego Rock Band style as they customize their minifigure avatars, band and entourage, including roadies, managers and crew,” stated the companies in a press release. The LEGO Rock Band game will work with music controllers and Rock Band instruments.
On Sunday the Nintendo DSi officially arrived on U.S. soil and it hit the European markets on the Friday before that. How did it do in the U.K. on the opening weekend? It made a killing. It became the fourth fastest-selling console in U.K. history after the PS3, Wii, and PSP. This is not bad for being a follow-up console.
In celebration of the DSi launching in the U.S., Nintendo hired Sean Kenney to build a large Lego sculpture of the console complete with stylus slot and power connector. The Nintendo DSi Lego sculpture is taller than the size of an average human.
If you live or plan to visit New York City, you can see the DSi on display at the Nintendo World Store at Rockefeller Center.
