Does a Real WIIMOTE really work ?? - eljose - 05-15-2009

i really like this emu.. but the problem are the controllers, for example to play Wario Smooth moves.

my idea would be to buy a Wiimote (a real one) in many youtube videos you can see the buddy playing with the wiimote Undecided on a real PC but i do not know if this will really work if you can put in into a normal USB plug and play and so on Cool , i think this emu has a great future but does it worth to buy a Wiimote Big Grin to play with it ??

yes it's worth to have a wiimote for it (but you have to have a bluetooth dongle Big Grin, and use BluSoleil or some similar kind of program to recognize your wiimote Tongue)

so appart from a Wiimote you need a program for your pc i do not have bluetooth installed but are there adaptors i only have USB interface for Wiimote is this enough ??

if by USB interface you a little piece of hardware that looks like a USB stick or something then yes you can use that "dongle" Tongue (you just have to download that program now Tongue)

In short you cannot use a WiiMote without a Blutooth adapter to use with it. WiiMotes do not have any means of connecting with wires, USB or otherwise, unless you are a freaking electrical engineer. Hope that clears it up for you.

oh and you'll also need a sensor bar. there are many third party sensors bars out there that you can hook up to your pc. without that the IR pointer will not work with dolphin.

hmm i wonder, would a CRT monitor work as a huge sensor bar? Tongue Big Grin

nope - it has to send IR ;p

For many games, like SSBB, 360 controller works better. But maybe you have some games more based on the wiimote.
