I’m not sure if you guys have noticed, but Band Hero is coming to the DS, much like is a fashion like it’s Guitar-only counterpart. But, it has the word ‘Band’ in the title. How will the vocals and drums work? Will the DS microphone be used to sing, and the touch screen used as drums? Well, you’re half right; the microphone built into the DS will be used to sing. But what about the drums? There will be a peripheral? Yes. Big time. It comes as a sleeve to your DS, as shown above. That’s cool, right?
