What do I do for Rock Band?

Currently, I'm stuck with playing Rock Band at a friend's house, which doesn't bother me, but I'd like something a little closer to home.

Now, do I go for 360 or Wii? Here's my situation.

My 360 has multiple personalities. It'll go like "o hey kameo: elements of power!" and play fine, no errors or poop. Then, randomly, it'll go "halo tres? DEAD OR ALIVE FOUR???? SOUNDS DELICIOUS!!! *eats*" and will pretty much consume the disc off of the tray making an... unwanted sound.

HOWEVER, my Wii is still completely functional.

So, pros and cons.

Rock Band for 360 Pros

DLC
Prettier in-game (Like that matters)
Online (To my knowledge, the Wii version doesn't have)

Cons:

I have to wait 8-12 weeks for a repair
I risk the 360 eating the game if I don't repair it

Wii Pros

Prettier Instruments
Won't do anything to the disc
No waiting for repairs

Cons:

No Online (I think)
No DLC
Less pretty in-game


I'm really leaning towards the Wii version, since I'm too lazy to wait.

Thoughts?

The Wii game will have extra songs, but they are releasing it in several volumes at retail for $30 each.

The 360 version is going to be superior. Are you placing your system horizontally or vertically? The Xbox I mean.

So true. That's my other option for 360. Save for a month and then get an Elite with Rock Band.

That doesn't really matter to me >_>

Although, my character at my friend's house can't be beat.

Everyone in the band has the most expensive clothing/instruments. So there's capes, face paint, crazy hair-doo's, etc.

I, however, am wearing glasses, jeans, a gray hoodie, and I have generic gray hair. I'm vocalist XD

Custom

I think the Wii version also doesn't have custom character creation. Not sure though. Might have changed it.

I like the Xbox 360 one. You can talk to people and have online fun. Also there are achievements, which I find add more fun to games, it gives you something to try and unlock. Yuuup.

Xbox 360.  this isn't even a question.  anyone who gets the Wii version only does so because they don't have a 360 to play it on.

Elites are too costly for a 13 year old >_<.

I just got 200 dollars for Confirmation and most likely another 300 coming from my Birthday. Since I agreed with my dad to save half/spend half of what I get, that's 250$. Elites are what, 400? 500? Either way, I can wait until Christmas if I really wanted an Elite, which the only reason I want it is for the color :P
