First pic of the Nintendo DS Guitar Hero peripheral, plus video!
Last September, the design manager for Vicarious Visions, Adrian Earle, blabbed about Guitar Hero for the Nintendo DS having an exciting new peripheral, to rawk out to all the Bon Jovi tracks the game will no doubt contain.
Several months later, and we have an official photo of the peripheral, thanks to the German magazine N-Zone.de. Instead of holding the DS in the normal manner, it’s held sideways, like you would when playing Brain Training, allowing…

Play Guitar Hero online for free with "Super Crazy Guitar Maniac 2"
OK, now here’s a very annoying thing. Guitar Hero isn’t the best pressing buttons to music game there’s ever been by a long shot.
