After months of excuses, denials, delays and more, it finally looks like Wii owners of Rock Band 2 are getting the DLC love they've been craving all along. Harmonix is pulling double-duty making sure that Wii owners will have access to all those lovely downloadable tracks that other consoles have been enjoying, although considering how well the Nintendo version has been selling (or should that be out-selling) lost time = lost profits. 50 songs are now available for your download consumption, with 30 priced to move at 200 Wii Points each. The other 20, by considerably less well-known artists, are the promised freebies. Thanks goes to the Harmonix forums.
Here's the full list of 30 available songs at 200 Wii Points:
30 Seconds to Mars - The Kill
All-American Rejects - Move Along
Avenged Sevenfold - Afterlife

The Wii's paltry internal memory just isn't going to cut it if you have any plans on amassing a large music collection for Rock Band 2, and thankfully SanDisk has the solution. How does an officially-sanctioned 2Gig Rock Band 2 SD card strike you? Probably more expensive if you just picked up a standard SD card, but if you're one of those people who loves labels and all things official, check it out for yourselves right HERE!
