Hi, I would like to sell my Wii because I would like to play my games on Dolphin (if I can with my pc...) because thery looking very well.

So, I already have the Wiimote and nunchuck, now I have to buy a senson bar (I can't use the sensor bar of my Wii) and a bluetooth USB stick.
So, can you tell me wich type of sensor bar and USB stick can I buy?

I also have a Logitech joypad: http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Rumblepad-Vibration-Feedback-Gamepad/dp/B0002XJBG4

Does it work with Dolphin? Or I nedd to play ONLY with Wiimonte + nunchuck? I think that with some games, for example Capcom vs Tatsunoko, the pad is better...

many thanks

bye
1st - The gamepad should work.
2nd - Choose any bluetooth dongle, everyone should work. I use a cheap dongle from Hama.
3rd - I can recommend a wireless sensorbar from Durcacell with 8 IR sensors. Very powerful Wink

Ok, thanks

2) is this usb dongle ok? http://www.ebay.it/itm/ADATTATORE-BLUETOOTH-USB-2-0-DONGLE-WIRELESS-VISTA-XP-7-PER-WINDOWS-/280849386107?pt=Altre_Periferiche&hash=item4163ed8a7b

3) and is this ok? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Duracell-Wireless-Sensor-bar-Wii/dp/B0041Q4172

thanks
They should be fine, although I'd recommend buying some NiMH rechargeable batteries, as wireless bars can burn through batteries quickly, and its cheaper to recharge batteries than use non rechargeable ones.
2) Yep, it's ok for single player. If u want to play with more wiimotes, you will need a much more better bluetooth dongle
3) Sensorbar is nice Cool
ok!

How can I know if a usb dongle is for 1 or 2 players?

Anther question: in this moment I don't have usb dongle and sensor bar. If I want to play with some games (for example beat ' em up as Capcom vs Tatsunoko), can I use the Logitech pad I show you in the post above?

many thanks
A "class 1" dongle has the best connection . Therefore , it should connect many wiimotes at once
As DefenderX said , that dongle only connect 1 wiimote or may be not compatible with dolphin (not connect at all)

very good, I think this is ok: http://www.eprice.it/Bluetooth-per-PC-HAMLET/d-1098044
and I will buy the sensor bar I linked above.
I don't know if I can attach it on my monitor...as the sensor bar of the Wii...but I think anyway that it is good (do you locate the sensor bar at the upper side of your monitor?)
I'm not sure about that dongle , Bluetooth v1.1 is too old and no one has tested it yet
List of working BT devices
I have 2 dongles look like this

Someone has mention a working Asus dongle before but i forgot its model
thanks! Well I want to buy this one! can you tell me the name of that dongle? i dont't find it in google/amazon/ebay...

Another question: before to buy usb dongle and sensor bar, I would like to test some games with Dolphin because I want to know if my games run correcttly with my computer. Can I play now with my Logitech joypad (I linked it above) ?Is it possible for example to play with some games (super mario galaxy 2, capcom vs tatsunoko, resident evil 4...), so if they work fine, I will buy dongle and bar

many thanks
