Red Steel on Wii with sword combat and Wii Remote shooting in modern Japan. Wii launch title with FPS and katana, appealing idea but imperfect controls, ambitious but flawed.

Collector interest

Japanese version of Ubisoft's launch FPS, one of the first titles conceived around the Wii Remote for shooting and sword combat. The NTSC-J copy was printed in more modest quantities than the Western versions, the FPS genre being less buoyant in Japan. Desirability rests on this regional scarcity of a launch game emblematic of the Wii's gesture-control promises, sought by collectors of the console's startup titles.
