But I still have some questions...:

You say the sensor bar connects to the T.V. itself, through AV inputs Im guessing. Well, what if a T.V. doesn't have those inputs? My TV doesnt, so I use the AV ports through the DVD player which is hooked up to it(through cable line) for my Xbox or other game consoles. Won't there be 2 different AV plugs? One for the Wii console and one for the sensor bar? I hope I'm not sounding too confusing. I'm started to get confused myselft just typing this...

The sensor bar hooks intot he back of the Wii, only one AV input is necessary. The actual physical sensor bar connects to the tv by 2-sided tape, not the input.

I dint like red steel i'ved already traded it for raving rabbids. But you should look into waiting for No More Heros http://www.gamespot.com/wii/action/heroes/index.html.
Read the reviews for Red Steel they are a little dissaponting.

mine did...just play the games you want to try first then try to connect- worst thing is you'll have to wait until nintendo replaces your unit...i hear they are pretty good about the ones that fail.
