Nintendo has sent out a press release detailing their efforts to integrate the Nintendo Wii and last year’s “Wii Music” into select schools in an effort to ” help inspire students and promote an active appreciation for music.”

The Japanese game maker is collaborating with the National Association for Music Education (MENC) to bring the Wii and Wii Music into 51 classrooms across the United States.

“The goal of Wii Music is to inspire people of all ages to enjoy music,” said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “By partnering with educators and bringing Wii Music into their classrooms, we hope to give students a memorable, hands-on experience that helps them discover their own creative voice.”
