I really hope Red Steel 2 sells through the roof mainly because it looks like something that really uses the strengths of the wiimote/nunchuck. It creates a new sub genre that combines the great IR control for shooting and the sweet motion plus action for swordfighting that allows one to use combos which switch between each style (First person shooter slasher?). They have spent over a year with a good team on it so it will be quality despite their low expectations.

I also hope this leads to other devs creating FPSS since I personally find the sword fighting (especially showdown mode) to be great in wii sports resort. Add in some shooting with the IR and its hard for it not to be fun. Maybe if this game sells well Ubi will make another but I doubt it. It is a shame though that no Wii owners ever buy these great games. I just hope somehow Red Steel 2 has some name recognition since its a revamped 'sequel' to a release game (albeit a bad one).
