Eagle-eyed NeoGAF user TurtleSnatcher did a little squinting and probably gave himself a wicked headache to find this one: a small "Pay to Play" logo on the corner of Samba De Amigo Wii box art found at Gamestop.com.
Sure, it's entirely possible that one of Gamestop.com's web guys got bored and decided to mess around in Photoshop. But it seems like this may be a hint that Sega will be offering paid downloadable content for the game when it ships this August. One can only guess that the content will be more songs for the shaking/music game, but I suppose we should rule out new sombreros, either.
If Sega is able to offer downloadable songs and content for Samba De Amigo, we expect many an angry Guitar Hero III and Rock Band player may start getting whiny before long.

Error Code 49785584849303093838447, damn I'm glad I payed for this.
Da Daaaaaaa Da Da!
And then you have to check each and every one.
I used to like you Nintendo. Go make your money without us.
You are STILL part of the minority.
DLC is optional, no matter what system it's on. You don't have to buy it. If you think you're getting ripped off because the extra content is not included on the disc, don't pick up the game in the first place. Pesonally, I'm stoked that Samba De Amigo is coming back (awesome game to play with friends), and the possibility of extra songs added later is a definite positive to me.
Interesting it's a third party title to take advantage of this , Perhaps third parties sort of inspired this initiative at Nintendo, like Rock band and Guitar Hero III. Guess it wasn't here in time...
Make up your mind, gamers.
Go Sega, Go!
Now if Nintendo could just sort a hard drive, and we'd all be happy.

I love how all these Wii-haters complain that the Wii doesn't have downloadable content, and now that it's finally getting some, they complain about that, too.
Now if Nintendo will allow for external hard drive/flash drive support, we'll be set. And seeing as how they've finally recognized that gamers want more space, there's a chance that this'll actually happen soon.
