No, that's not the cries of a Nintendo fan boy asking for some storage space to keep all his Virtual Console downloads! It's the cries of Rob Kay, design director at Harmonix. He claims that the main reason for the lack of downloadable content in the Wii version of ROCK BAND was because there is nowhere to keep it all, but hey didn't we know that anyways?
"Come on Nintendo, we need a hard drive," Kay said in a recent interview with CVG. "That's what we want. The whole problem is there's nowhere to store it."
"If the platform could do it, we'd jump on it", he continued. "It's something that we championed to Nintendo, that we'd like to do it. Who knows what will happen down the line, I don't know what's coming down the line, but that's the reason there's no DLC in Wii Rock Band"
Will having no hard drive affect the Wii's sales in the long run? I highly doubt it. But the lack of downloadable content and storage space really affects games like ROCK BAND and Guitar Hero. No one wants an inferior version of a game after all right?
