@elitotaku Nope. That thing you connect to the console isn't a sensor, it's just a bar that has infrared lights in it... the Wiimote senses them and uses that to determine its orientation relative to the TV set.
@kenmoore ok, im gona buy a Bluetooth dongel and a wii remote tomorrow and will use it with my Wii emulator just needed to make sure that u dont need anything else.
Please help, My mobile can detect the Wiimote, my iPad can not. my mobile can also detect the iPad. my laptop cant connect any of them. :( I want it to work so much :((((
Surprisingly easy to set up. Took me 15 seconds! Works perfectly! Combined with the sensor bar I may never touch my actual wii again xD Metroid games in 1080p with the DX11 settings, there's no going back! :O
is there any way for me to get the bluetooth device icon/file in my control panel because lately i can't find it in my control panel so could you help me by telling me where to look for the file bluetooth devices in my conrol panel for windows XP? plz :)
I really want to get this working, but it won't work. At first the wii remote blinked all 4 buttons after I got it connected, but it wouldn't stop blinking 4 buttons. After that, every time I connect it it immediately shuts off or the 1 and 4 player lights shine, and shortly after they shine the remote shuts off and I have to start all over again.
@DonovanHillery Hm, sorry, I wish I knew what the 1+4 lights meant... mystery to me, I'd try searching with Google for other people reporting the same problem, perhaps there's a solution out there on the web.
@kenmoore Thanks for the reply, but now I don't have that problem anymore. Now when I add my wiimote to my computer, all four of the lights keep flashing. It says my wii remote is connected on wiinremote and in my control pannel, but when I push buttons nothing happens on glovepie. Any tips? Sorry for asking so many questions.
@DonovanHillery The buttons continue to blink (sometimes) even after connected. Maybe your issue is with glovepie, I'd try another test app such as WiimoteWhiteboard -- if that works fine then glovepie may be the issue. Beyond that advice I have little to offer.... good luck!
@kenmoore Thank you so much. I found the problem now, but just one more question... I'm just wondering if you know how to get glovepie scripts to work correctly. I'm trying to get my wiimote button A to = the A button on the keyboard, but when I type "A = wiimote.A" it doesn't work. Same for "wiimote.A = A" (minus the quotation marks), sorry if you don't know, but thanks for helping me out with my other problems :D
@brandonnesfan Well yes, but DonovanHillery's issue is different -- both the 1 and 4 lights show simultaneously, which would have some other significance.
Hi Ken, I am a Elementary teacher here in Oxnard California and I am very excited to finally put some technology in my classroom. So, that I can eliminate some of the problems of connectivty, I wonder if you could tell me what kind of laptop you are using and what kind of projector do you use and how does it connect to the computer? Mr G 2nd grade
@izzy4053 I am using a Sony VAIO FW series laptop with Vista and a standard large monitor (any monitor or projector will work as long as it doesn't affect the performance of the Wiimote picking up the IR light from the pen). While some people report bluetooth problems, it can be hard to troubleshoot those. I say just try it with any bluetooth-enabled laptop you have, and if you hit a roadblock try another model. Let me know how it goes!
My standard reply: Sorry, things worked pretty well for me right from the start and I'm not an expert on Bluetooth by any means. I'll have to defer you to other support forums. I'd start with wiimoteproject (dot com) ... on the blue menu bar under 'Useful Links' > 'How To Connect' . Hope that helps.

@KissJustMimi errrrr, emmm, I don't know what to recommend, as this sounds very different from what I see on my Vista machine. I suspect you have different Bluetooth hardware with different drivers. Do a Google search for Matthias Shapiro Connect Wiimote. There's a good guiding article on his designerwpf(DOT)com site. Good luck!
I have Vista Home Premium, And when I click on Bluetooth Devices, I don't get the little screen with a lot of tabs, it just gives me another page with two options:
"Add wireless devices" and "Bluetooth Settings" Everything is defult, but I can't ADD the wiimote. I open the Add page, and click the buttons and wait, but nothing happens....
Sorry, things worked pretty well for me right from the start but I understand the underlying layers of technology are complex and fragile... I'll have to defer you to other support forums. I'd start with wiimoteproject (dot com) ... on the blue menu bar under 'Useful Links' > 'How To Connect' . Hope that helps.
alright i am following the tips, but i just can't get my wiimote to actually connect. It keeps saying it is connected but it never works when i try to run glovepie with it

often for me after the connection the lights continue to blink, so that's not necessarily a sign that it's not working. An info bubble should appear in the system tray saying the device was connected successfully.
I'm having similar problems. It'll blink for fifteen seconds after the installation, then the LEDs shut off and the computer won't respond to it. The Wiimote does show up in the list of Bluetooth devices, but once I close the dialog box and reopen it the Wiimote is no longer there. What am I doing wrong?
