http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.nintendowiifanboy.com/media/2008/05/samba050608.jpg (http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=7754)The boxart for the Wii version of Samba de Amigo (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/04/15/samba-de-amigo-missing-some-much-needed-shake/) has now been revealed in tiny form on Gamestop's site. It is, as far as we know, the first game to feature the new red Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Pay-to-Play logo, which was first shown at GDC this year.
Either this means that you'll have to pay a subscription fee to play Samba online, or (infinitely more likely) that downloadable songs will be available over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Which, if true, makes the Wii version of Rock Band (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/04/15/first-rock-band-wii-shots-arrive-fail-to-cheer-us-up/) (with its new lineup of expansion discs (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/05/05/rock-band-track-pack-no-replacement-for-dlc-available-july/)!) just that much more insulting.
