Game idea: first-person swordfighting

First of all, I know that making this topic will in no way cause anyone to make this game, I just want to get my ideas out there. Second, someone may have already made a topic like this, and if so sorry for the repeat. Now, on to the idea.

Ever since I found out about how the wii-mote is motion sensitive, I've thought Nintendo (or some other developer) should make a more detailed sword-fighting game. I don't mean like Zelda, or Red Steel, or the sword-fighting mini-game in Warioware. I'd like to see a game in first-person which focuses on detailed sword-fighting, where you can use the wii-mote to make inticite attacks and parries. Basically, I want the attack and defense system to be more detailed, like real sword-fighting or fencing. The setting could be medievil, so the only ranged attacks would be arrows. You could carry a shield in your left hand, and use the nunchuck to maneuver it. It could be possible to use different weapons, like axes, bows, clubs, etc., but if this took away from the more technique-oriented battles, I would prefer to leave it out. I've got a bunch of other ideas for the game mechanics, but for now I just wanted to get the basic structure up and see what people thought.

Sounds like a game that Bethesda could make. ( The makers of Elder Scrolls games like Oblivion ).trav_have

That's what I was thinking...

they even said they wanted to do something on the wii (or showed interest ( link )) obviously they can't put oblivion or anything of that caliber on it, but they could make one heck of a game with their attention to detail. 

what about a ninja gaiden for the wii, I mean they already are making one for the ds so why not the wii.

Do any of your remember Bushido Blade? If so, remember that first person mode you could play? I think that something similar that can be done with the Wii.Laus_Kaemdis

Yep, I even made a thread about that a few days ago. 

yeah that would be sweet...imagine playing a game like that with this:

So basically, you're asking for a Die By the Sword game for the Wii.....

(ok, it's a third-person, but it's got everything including the sword swinging using the mouse, something like that game would adapt perfectly to the Wiimote) 

koei is making a dynasty warriors game for the wii (when ever it comes out) it will have first person sword fighting. and some other weapons.

Do you mean a game like Dragon Quest: Swords?Wardemon50

Yeah, that's what I was thinking of when I was reading the OP's post.

It has the whole shield thing with as well.
