Does real Wiimote work well with Dolphin?

[illserveu]

I intend to buy a Wiimote to play some game that hard to play with Gamepad. There're many things I need to know:

1. I've read how to connect real Wiimote with PC, so I know that Dolphin can play with Wiimote. But is there any problem with it? Can I play New Super Mario Bros, Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 well?

2. Do I need anything else to play with real Wiimote (in the instruction, look like I need a bluetooth adapter)?

3. Many Wiimotes are sold on eBay and Amazon. Are they come from Nintendo? Someone tell me they are from China, since Nintendo doesn't sell Wiimote alone.'

Thank you.

1. Yes it works fine.

2. You need the wiimote, a sensorbar, and a bluetooth dongle. If the game you're playing requires a nunchuck, wiimotion plus, or any other extension you will need that as well.

3. You can buy official wiimotes from nintendo by themselves, which we recommend doing. Unofficial 3rd party wiimotes may not work correctly.

The motion plus is built into the controllers Nintendo makes now, and a nunchuck is needed for most games. Nintendo-made ones will set you back $60 if you buy them new in the US, most places that sell games also carry them.

A GOOD bluetooth adapter will cost between $20 and $30 online.

You can use a 3rd party sensor bar, USB powered ones will save you money on batteries.

How do I know what a game need? Should I buy a full set, so I can play upcoming game?

I don't know about bluetooth adapter, is it different from USB bluetooth (bluetooth receiver using USB port)? It's only 4$ here! Wonder if I can use it. And can you give me the link to amazon or eBay that sell the $60 set? Most Wiimote are 40$ in Amazon and 20$ in eBay.

You should get everything you need now, that includes a Wii-mote, motion plus, nunchuck, sensor-bar and bluetooth. Some Wii-motes have the MotionPlus included, some don't. Make sure you know the difference and what you're buying beforehand. Chances are if you will be playing Wii games for an extended period of time, you're going to run into games that need nunchuks and MotionPlus options, so it's best to just get everything you need now and not have to bother with it later. if possible.

As far as knowing if a game needs a nuchuck or other extension, ask about it when you buy the game, or look on the Gamestop website (or other) and you can find out there by searching for the game.

Bestbuy or Walmart sell cheap ones for $20 sometimes cheaper. The second I got Dolphin working with a Wiimote I ran out and got one!
