News: No Hendrix DLC On Wii

Activision spills the beans on some downloadable content limitations on the Wii version of Guitar Hero World Tour. Hendrix fans will not be impressed...
Jimi Hendrix DLC in Guitar Hero World Tour will not be available for the Wii. This news could potentially effect other DLC too as an activision rep explained in the following statement.
Due to technical or licensing restrictions, the DLC offerings will not be the same for every console platform. For example, certain artists prefer to keep the integrity of the track pack rather than releasing singles and the Wii's infrastructure only allows us the ability to release single songs as DLC. We are very excited to be the first third-party publisher to bring a library of playable DLC songs to the Nintendo Wii platform. Vicarious Visions has pioneered with Nintendo a seamless way to download, store and access songs via SD Card. The development team is committed to offering Wii fans worldwide as much variety of DLC as possible on a regular basis.
