New Band Brothers on DS uses Wii 'Speaker Channel'

The sequel to the currently Japan-only DS music game Daigasso! Band Brothers takes advantage of the rarely-used Wii/DS interface, with awesome-sounding results. Band Brothers DX, in addition to a host of neat Wi-Fi features, will connect to a downloadable Wii "Speaker Channel." The channel allows players to stream their user-created music to the Wii, for a more public performance.Long ago, the first Daigasso! was to be released in the U.S. and Europe as Jam with the Band! Maybe now that the sequel will show off the Wii's connectivity features, and its use of "channels," in a unique way, Nintendo will see fit to release the sequel worldwide.

Why is everything below the article italisized (did I spell that right? ... I hate this computer) ?
On another note: If I was into hearing myself sing outside of karaoke, I'd get that channel.

I doubt it'll make a US release.
It was also called (first name?)Game Boy Music and was for the GBA.

Speaking as someone who loved the first Band Brothers...
Please, sweet God, bring it over to America this time. This game is awesome and would be a huge hit with people who enjoy Rock Band and Guitar Hero.
