If I get the 2112 (all parts) on Wii, will I be able to play them all without a break? That's what bugged me about playing the song on GH.. all the damn breaks.

Nope, the Wii doesn't do packs or free(you have Nintendo to thank for that) songs/DLC, so you are out of luck...
No free Pro guitar/bass charts either for the same reason...
And according to someone at HMX the Wii wouldn't have been able to handle it either due to technical restraints like the lack of memory or the way it is handled on the Wii...

ok... but once i download the song in all its parts can i play it seamlessly?

On the Wii, no...
You have to make a setlist with the 3 parts and then still press continue after each part...
PS3/Xbox360 players do get a free 4th track which is the full uninterupted suite...

thanks for the info.. I guess I can't persuade them to offer it on the Wii...

 

[Brikar99]

You can't persuade them to offer something that isn't possible.

Bingo....
It's technically not possible on the Wii due to memory limitations or they would have to offer a very bad audio version of it to bring the size down...
The Wii is the worst console for Rock Band games...
