Red Steel
Nintendo Wii · 2006
About this game
Taking place in both the USA and Japan, Red Steel is a crime themed shooter that has the player-controlled Scott Monroe fighting off various members of the Yakuza clans in order to rescue his fiancée.
It features sword duels and gun fights using the Wiimote, to allow the player to swing the controller as they would swing a sword.

The positioning and movement actions of the Wiimote also let the player aim their weapons almost as they would a real gun.
Not only must the player fight off many clan leaders, but the option is often given to spare lives of the enemy.
This can lead to the player gaining more friends in the future, rather than more opponents if Scott is seen to be dishonorable.
It is up to Scott to hopefully gain allies and uncover the reasons for his financée's kidnapping.
About Nintendo Wii
Launched in 2006, the Wii's motion controls (Wii Remote) brought casual and non-traditional players into console gaming at a scale no prior system had achieved, making it one of the best-selling consoles ever. Because so many Wii units sold with bundled software like Wii Sports, the bulk of the library is inexpensive to collect — but it also means truly rare Wii titles (often niche Japanese-only releases) stand out sharply from the norm.
Gamevaro tracks Red Steel for Nintendo Wii with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Red Steel to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This WII release dates back to 2006.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Red Steel has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
