You know what, I'm looking at all those Mini-Moni games and I'm thinking it's weird that there's no Twins game. There's like 100 Twins movies.

Zombie level doesn't use Thriller. Come on man
The games featuring the malefic Miku number in the millions, consider this entry for all of them
Not really its own thing like the other two Rock Band entries - it really is just the songs, no likenesses or anything on top - but it was a separate release, you could buy the disc for this in a shop, I did buy the disc for this in a shop, and I finished the whole thing in one sitting, so there
Not actually based on Devo but it has their branding and they co-wrote the story/contributed to the soundtrack, so sue me.
Apparently this is Avenged Sevenfold's mascot. Gotta punch up that name, fellas!
Okay maybe this one is pushing it.
Initial Famicom release had no actual Seikima-II music, MSX2 re-release Seikima-II Special does. Fun rendition of House of Wax!
Absolutely raging that there's no 8-bit rendition of Get Wild in this

Apparently the band was created specifically for this game. Wild!

We could have had a Fuel level...........
Aerosmith were very committed to the idea of interactive entertainment being the future of music, with Revolution X, Quest for Fame, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, the "Aerosmith World" 3D chatroom, the interactive music game on their Nine Lives CD, and their heavy involvement in the Xbox Dead or Alive games.
