Hardware Wii MotionPlus Built-In Issues?

[Hielkenator]

Place the Wiimote in your handpalm buttons faced inward.
Hit the mote firmly a couple of times.

Try the remote.
PS the sensor bar has NOTHING TO WITH THE MOTION PLUS.

I've used 2 candles in the past in front of my tv..works like a charm.

Well Blade you would know. I paid AU $26 all up with shipping included for my Wii Motion Plus but it could be real. It looks legit and came in a Japanese Nintendo box but it was shipped from Hong Kong by looking at the packaging.

well if it hasn't got that arc than you've been had

If it say "Wii Motionplus INSIDE" it's original
If it say just "Motionplus INSIDE" it's fake

Also, it's really hard to notice a fake one, except for this little detail, they made really good rip-offs =P

....Sounds kinda like sunlight tae me.

Try blocking any/all sources of sunlight that get into the general area on/between the remote and sensor bar. See if that helps at all.

Or it coulda been doinked, as others have said.
