15 years of gaming and the last i was angry about a game was giving Dixons $50 for Donkey Kong on the nes only to find out it was a 10 year old game with 3 levels. I thought Red Steel had some small glitches but nothing too bad but now i can`t progress. A fight 53% in and i have to fight a guy on a balcony in the rain who starts with a poison sword. Getting rid of his sword is easy. Avoiding his attacks and working an opening is reasonable, but whats the point when i swing my remote and nothing happens on screen. Reactions are terrable in this fight.
the reason Red steel is so unresponsive to many moves is because the wiimote is only a 3 axis controller (X,Y,Z) so it can't really detect any of the normal movement you would use when using a sword, the game has a set number of allowed actions when using the sword. (it pisses me off to)

Holy Cow! Was Donkey Kong on the NES really $50 american? If thats the case thats a surprise! What do you think games cost back then? I remember them being around $35 max. Maybe someone can dig up a classic ToysRUs ad or something.
It was actually £50 British Pounds, very bad i know but thats what new NES games cost, even though they where years old and been launched in Japan, then America and finally Europe for a higher price years later, Mario 3 on the NES cost me £60 from Dixons, thats like $100 US i think. But back to my post, its not the batteries im just having a very hard time getting the remote to react when i swing in this fight, the fight seems impossible to win and im dieing to progress. I might be swinging too slow or at a stupid angle so ill keep trying but anyone any hints that might help me?
i think i just defeted this guy by breaking his sword complety. when you dodge an attack shack the nunchuck and this will nick your enemies sword
thought i took me a long time to work out how to sword fight in red steel. i find i need to do two things put my trigger finger along side the remote then instead of by twisting my arm move my arm in straight movments.
all i can say is the sword movment control could have been a lot better
