Why's the Nintendo Wii version of Guitar Hero games always cheaper than the Xbox 360 or PS3...
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The Wii remote is a wireless device. The GH peripherals on the Wii use the Wii remotes as their interface. The GH peripherals on the other systems have to build in the wireless connections into the peripherals. This is the added expense that you see for that bit.
If you're talking about the game only... MS has set the price of most games to around $60. The Big N has set the price of most games to $50.
It's arbitrary... it's history... it's what Nintendo/MS set the price at. Gamecube games used to be $30, so $50 didn't seem too much for the consumer, supposedly for a "next gen" game). Microsoft is just greedy (jk).

With or without the peripherals, Wii games are consistently about $10 cheaper than the Xbox 360/PS3 versions. PS2 is usually about the same price as Wii version.

On the other hand, the officially licensed guitar controllers for all three consoles tend to be about the same price when purchased by themselves...unless you luck out and find one on sale.
