LOL that was awesome!

BTW, there's a video there that tells you how to create your own Wii Sensor Bar. I didn't realize it's just a bar with LED lights that doesn't actually send data back to the Wii.

I guess it's just used as a reference point for the Wiimote?

Ya that's what i would think, it is just using the IR L.E.D's as a reference point, I didn't know that I thought it was the other way around and the Sensor bar was the thing actually seeing where the wiimote is... interesting...

I wonder if I where to make my own, and stretch the IR LEDS to both sides of my tv if it would make the sensor more dead on

If your Suby uses Bluetooth, then yes.

Is there a way to adjust the sensitivity of the Wiimote?
