Kept on Wikipedia:Nyko FrontMan
The Nyko Frontman is a guitar controller produced by Nyko for several game systems to be used with the video games Guitar Hero and Rock Band.[1] Depending on the version, its appearance is very similar to the Fender Telecaster (Wii) or the Gibson Explorer (PS2/PS3).
Compatibility
Separate models were released rhythm games for the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii video game consoles.[2][3] The first iterations were compatible with Guitar Hero 1 and Guitar Hero 2 for the PS2.[4]
Compatibility for Wii, by game title:
Guitar Hero III: Y
Guitar Hero V: N
Guitar Hero - Aerosmith: Y
Guitar Hero - World Tour: Y
Guitar Hero - Van Hallen: Y
Guitar Hero - Smash Hits: Y
Guitar Hero - World of Rock: N
Rock Band 1: N
Rock Band 2: Y
With the addition of PS3 Firmware 3.10 the Frontmans Dongle/receiver was Deactivated due to it being one of many products not up to Standards, However Nyko offer a free replacement receiver if you Email them, once it is replaced the Guitar Works(While in GH mode) fine with Rock Band 3*and presumably other games too.
Reception
Wired gave the Wii version a 6 out of 10 rating, praising its larger whammy bar and lower price, but feeling that it’s difference could lead to perceived unfairness in multiplayer competitions.[5] Two separate IGN reviews generally praised it for being better than most other third party guitar controllers, though conceded that it still wasn’t better than first party ones.[6][7] Reviewers at 1UP.com were “impressed” wit it as well, praising its responsiveness.[8]
