Red Steel is a first person shooter video game developed by Ubisoft Paris and published by Ubisoft for Nintendo's Wii console. It has spawned a sequel, Red Steel 2.
The game takes advantage of Wii's motion-sensitive controller, along with the Nunchuk attachment, to control a katana and a firearm. The on-screen gun hand points the gun in the same direction as the Wiimote is pointing. Players can push objects to use them as cover by pushing the controller forward. Shaking the Nunchuk attachment or pressing "right" on the D-Pad reloads the gun. The player can also throw grenades underhand or overhand, by moving the Nunchuk as though it were the actual grenade.
Problems
Broken
Start Red Steel and ignore all messages about incomplete NAND dump, press alt-F5 to get past the wiimote screen, and Red Steel will get into the game. But there is an emulation problem which won´t let the first cutscene continue (Chinese woman says something about fish). There is currently no known solution for this problem.
NAND Dump
Although Dolphin throws error messages about incomplete NAND dump, the game is NOT playable with a NAND dump! If you set up a NAND dump, after the health warning screen, it will switch to the Disc Channel. If starting the game through the Disc Channel it only shows a black screen (the Disc Channel doesn't work yet).
Configuration
