Why can I not find a decent wired sensor bar for the Wii? I don't want a wireless one, I want a wired one! Are they impossible to come by? Pat on the back to the first person who finds me one! Please!

I ordered a few camera bits and bobs from these guys before and haven't had any issues with them.

The wiimote just needs a few fixed infra red sources to work. The sensor bar "senses" nothing it is just a few infra red LED's and is pence to make.
As an alternative try a couple of candles, very romantic.

Have you been on the sauce? No-one is about to say you don't get one with a Wii, but it does come with a particularly fragile wire, so it's a reasonable assumption that it might break and you'd therefore be after a replacement.
