Title: Help me identify this Wii part Post by: shaggy on December 19, 2017, 06:00:55 PM I found this Wii accesory in a bunch of Wii stuff. Anyone know what this is for?

You put the Sensor Bar on it. I believe the bottom part peels off to make it stick to a surface.

Title: Re: Help me identify this Wii part Post by: shaggy on December 19, 2017, 09:38:25 PM That's what I thought it was but I didn't recall my Wii coming with this when I got mine at launch.

Still on it to this day even though the Wii gets very little use. Title: Re: Help me identify this Wii part Post by: techwizard on December 23, 2017, 02:57:11 PM i've bought 2 wii's new that never came with this, but i bought both relatively late. maybe this only came with earlier wii's?

Google isn’t helping much but one might infer that the 2011 non-GameCube model dropped the part. I got mine in 2008 (or was it 09?) and it was included.Title: Re: Help me identify this Wii part Post by: shaggy on December 23, 2017, 08:20:43 PM I got mine at launch and I swear it didn't come with it. The sensor bar itself had the two sticky strips on mine.
Title: Re: Help me identify this Wii part Post by: Boshamp on December 24, 2017, 12:32:42 PM My little brother threw it away when we were opening the Wii for the first time after I bought it at launch. I reached out to Nintendo a couple days later and they advised me that they had received many messages for the same reason and sent me a replacement. I am guessing they stopped including that part for that reason and possibly other reasons as well.

That would certainly make sticking the sensor bar on top of a TV easier, especially for a CRT that doesn't have a flat top. I might have to seek one out for the CRT I'm using for my Wii...
