Question about the Wii and the sensor bar?

Question

Do you need the sensor bar for the wii remote to work?

Answer 1

yes cuz it wont work and then you need to but another one if you throw that one away. also i have one and you need it! your welcome!

Answer 2

You don't need it for everything to work. Like, if you unplug the sensor bar from the Wii, you can still turn the Wii on with the Wii remote. But you can't select things because that feature is motion sensored.

Answer 3

yes you do need the sensor bar for your remote to work or else what can it sence when you play wii games? but if you play gamecube games i dont think you need the sensor bar. im sure you know that by know regarding to what everyone else said. thank you for your time :]

Answer 4

yes and no. the sensor bar enables you to play your or rather move in the game. Also if you want to take a risk use a lit candle and put somewhere near the tv. The flame sort of convert the infrared laser to the console.

Answer 5

Well, yeah..

Without the bar, the Wii has nothing to sense, and the remote won't work, leaving the Wii useless, unless you want to play Gamecube games on it.

Answer 6

yes and no. yes because the wiimote relies on a sensor to work. no because if you try different things, like lightbulbs, candles, anything that gives off heat and light, the wiimote will work with that as well. try it. point the wiimote at a lamp in your room. the cursor will move around on the screen.
