3.1. Basic Gameplay and Instrument Control

Wii Music allows you to play over 60 different instruments by mimicking their real-life motions using the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. There are no complex button sequences; simply perform the natural movements associated with playing an instrument.

• Strumming: For instruments like guitar, banjo, and sitar, perform strumming motions with the Wii Remote.
• Ukushaya izigubhu: For drums (jazz, congas, snare), use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk as drumsticks.
• Hammering: For piano, vibraphone, and marimba, make hammering motions.

3.2. Forming Your Band

Each band in Wii Music consists of six members, each playing a specific part: two for the main melody, two for percussion, one for bass, and one for chords. You can play solo, layering parts, or with up to four players simultaneously.

• Solo Play: Record each instrument part individually to arrange a complete song.
• Abadlali abaningi: Up to four players can join a band, each controlling an instrument.
• Tutes: When playing solo, you can invite "Tutes" (in-game jam masters) to fill in other band parts and offer tips.

3.3. Song Customization and Improvisation

Wii Music encourages improvisation. You can adjust the tempo, phrasing, and even the style of a song. Experiment with different instrument combinations to create unique versions of familiar tunes, from rock classical to Latin-flavored Nintendo classics.

3.4. Saving and Sharing Performances

You can save your band's performances as "jam videos." These videos capture your Mii band members, their improvisation styles, and instrument selections. Saved videos can be shared with Wii Friends who also own Wii Music via WiiConnect24, allowing them to watch, modify, and send back their own versions.

Qaphela: WiiConnect24 service has been discontinued. Sharing features may no longer be available.

Beyond the main band jams, Wii Music includes several other modes and mini-games:

• Videos Mode: Watch your recorded jam videos with enhanced playback, featuring fun environmental effects and dramatic camera angles.
• Mii Maestro: Conduct a Mii orchestra by waving your Wii Remote like a baton. Control the speed, strength, and gentleness of the performance for orchestrated songs like The Legend of Zelda theme.
• Handbell Harmony: Participate in a handbell ensemble by swinging your Wii Remote and Nunchuk. Each player is responsible for specific notes, requiring teamwork to play the tune correctly.
• Pitch Perfect: Test your musical ear in this quiz by solving challenges such as ordering note-playing Miis from lowest to highest pitch.
• Imodi yesigubhu: Utilize the Wii Balance Board accessory (sold separately with Wii Fit) to simulate a real drum set. The Wii Remote and Nunchuk act as drumsticks, while your feet on the Balance Board control the bass drum and hi-hat cymbal.
