what do i need? - arniexd - 03-15-2011

I want to play wii games like I play them on my wii. But I need to buy a wireless motions sensor bar and a bluetooth usb dongle. On this site there is a link for a bluetooth usb dongle. Is it fast enough for me to play e.g. zelda twilight princess using the wiimote? Will it run completely fluent without any bugs? Or would you recommend something faster? My computer supports USB 3.0 btw. Also I have searched for a good wireless sensor bar, but the best one I found was from nyko and a lot of people said you had to be about 3 feet away from the sensor bar. I obviously dont want that XD. Can someone please tell me what I need to play high end wii games that use the wiimote etc. at full speed?

1. Fast computer, dual core 2.8ghz or higher
2. Good gpu, any of the latest ati or nvidia cards would be good.
3. sensor bar (wireless or usb - usb is better for obvious reasons cos it doesn't run out of batteries) http://www.amazon.com/Nextronics-Sensor-Bar-USB-Nintendo-Wii/dp/B002XVZW52/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1300138099&sr=8-4
4. bluetooth dongle (any one will be fine, they all run at a base i guess you could call it data speed so none will be faster or more fluent than any others)

Thanks! Have been searching for a good sensor bar a long time . I am also glad i dont need a high-end Bluetooth 3.0 USB dongle. Already have the pc though. Dolphin works fine on it XD

I have an E5400 @ 2.7GHZ and a GTX460 1GB OC and I haven't had a problem using Dolphin (just had to tweak the settings).
