You can sing in Rock Band .. I think the only issue you should be aware of then is that you have to look at a screen like this :



Not saying it's necessarily a problem, but you have to watch the characters in the game band play on stage with the rolling notes etc.

In the Karaoke games like Lips, Singstar and probably others, you get to watch something else like the music video for the song you're supposed to sing.



That might be better if singing is the only way the game is going to be played. Rock Band has of course the added benefit that you can join in though.

The only singing-type games I can think of for Wii are:

Wii Music has no singing, it just uses the wiimote.

Ahh, I thought as much. Alas.

Yeah I think Rock Band would be my choice.

Have you looked into all those 'Karaoke Revolution' games for Wii? Karaoke games always tend to have those typical 80s tunes.
