Wii Additions (Plug Ins)

Sensor Bar

The Wii Sensor Bar is an accessory for the Wii that detected the motion of the Wii Remote. The Sensor Bar works with the Wii Remote to determine where the player is pointing. Inside of the Sensor Bar there are a total of 10 LED lights (five on each side) which the Wii Remote uses to determine where the player is pointing. The Wii Remote detects these LED lights best when it is no more then fifteen feet or five yards away from the Sensor Bar. The Sensor bar plugging into the back of the Wii similarly to the power cord and the audio and video cables. This same port was also used on the Wii U so you could use the same Sensor Bar on both consoles. If your Sensor Bar broke Nintendo does sell them separately, there are also some third party developers that made other Sensor Bars. If need be you could use candles that register the same way a Sensor Bar would on the Wii Remote, but not as fluently.

Wii Speak

Instead of plugging into a unique slot on the back like the power cable or Sensor Bar the Wii Speak plugged into one of the USB ports on the back. While it is stated that the Wii Speak was designed to filter out audio from the game many customers stated hearing other players game audio and. Animal Crossing wasn't the only game to work with Wii Speak, while it doesn't have anywhere near as large of available games as the Wii Nunchuck, there were 13 games that supported it. In order to communicate with other you would have to download the Wii Speak Channel off of the Wii Shop Channel and released about half a month after Animal Crossing released in the United States, Canada, and Japan.
