I've been doing a lot of playing with the wiimote, and it IS possible to get it to autopair. From what I can tell, though, you pretty much HAVE to use the BlueSoleil BT stack. There are some apps out that purport to get autopairing working with other stacks, but they haven't worked for me yet. The downside is the BS stack is $$, but not much, and the trial version is only limited by the total bandwidth per day (something like 2mb transferred data), which is more than enough to handle testing the wiimote support. Good to know about the sensor bars. I'll have to check around for CC in the area. |

Mame will not work with wiimote/glovepie after .117 due to the multikeyboard support roll back to a version no later than .117 and it will probably work |

How much would two infrared LEDs cost? (That's basically what the so-called "sensor bar" is) |

I find that the cheap wireless ones are like 4 usually. It works about the same in most cases but I swear its not quite as good as the official one. You can hack the official ones for a 9v battery pretty easy to make it wireless. |

The good thing with a DIY solution is that you can space the LED clusters to match the distance you sit away from the thing. Especially like mentioned here if you want to use it in a cab setting. But then you could also cut apart the cheap thing. Yet Another DIY Wii Sensor bar (with distance tables) |
