Now I REALLY want to know what's up with these sensor bar stands, looks like I'm not the only one who didn't get one :unsure:

It's a simple, very forgettable piece of tiny plastic. Here it is in the Nintendo Online Store:

Seriously, people, give the guy a break! At least he admitted his complaints are minor. What part of it did you not read?

Hey guys. So I got my deluxe bundle this morning, and there were a few things that were a little off. For one, the sensor bar no longer comes with the little stand. Not that you need it, but I always liked having the sensor bar not directly on the surface it was sitting on. Luckily, you can get one of these for a dollar from the Nintendo online store. Second, it only came with one pad charging cable. This again isn't a huge deal, but you will need to decide between using the nice charging cradle, or being able to charge while you play (if you don't want to be messing with unplugging the cable from the cradle all the time). Again these are all ready available from the Nintendo online store (on the down side, an extra will run you 25 bucks). lso, if you got a basic package, and one of the deluxe only part (like the charging cradle or the vertical stands) they are all available on the Nintendo store as well. The only replacement part you can't get yet is a new pad, so be super careful with it.

I've got two Wii's, and neither have a stand on the sensor bar....

    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
