This is another of those games that needs more exact timings. I don't know if I have a GPU timing issue.
I'll make a global issue to merge all of them together when I get some time.

Game does boot up and run. User needs to press A on the zapper selection screen.

I can confirm in testing on 5.0-14002. (Windows 10, D3D12, GTX 750 Ti, Ryzen 5 1600.)
The Wiimote Zapper screen runs abjectly terrible at about 1FPS, but spamming the A button will eventually get past it. The game works fine otherwise.

So I tried this in single core instead, dual core seems to run reasonably. In single core the game loads incredibly slowly instead.
In dolphin a screen appears stating "WAIT SOLDIER" before main menu and a different "WAIT SOLDIER" screen appears after selecting "PLAY GAME" but before the first level loads and holds for a long time. Neither of these loading screens appear on a real console, it loads instantly there.
I tracked down a revision which slowed down loads considerably.
The revision which has some effect in slowing down this title further is 4.0-9154(https://dolphin-emu.org/download/dev/8f74f1f4e9aa1e045187b994631aa4476cbb745e/). This might help figure out area to look at.

https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/10244 seems to mitigate the long loading screens though not completely. Actually getting in game still seems to take a really long time or load indefinitely (I let it run for a few minutes at 140 fps but still wouldn't continue, maybe longer would have worked). Dual core still runs normally.
