I'm just warning you to be very careful with your Wii Sensor Bars. The wire that conects the bar to the Wii is very thin and can easily be snapped.
I was vacuuming a few weeks ago, and it actually got sucked into the vacuum, and wrapped up, snapping the wire from the bar, making the Wii practially, unusable.
I haven't gotten around to getting a new Sensor Bar yet, but I am supposed to be getting one tomorrow. I'm not quite sure if it's Nintendo Certified or whatever, I just really need the new Sensor Bar to play my games. From what I heard from the Wal-Mart clerk, it's a "Wireless" Wii Sensor Bar. I'm not quite sure if that means that there is no wire connecting it to the Wii, it's wireless like the remote, or it's just called "Wireless" just because the WiiMote is wireless.
If you know anything about the Wii Sensor Bar, please let me know.

yeah that's a bummer. The same kind of thing happened to me too yesterday. My pet rabbit got behind the TV and chewed it all up!
You can buy the wireless sensor bar at Wal-Mart?
Yes, they were at one of my local Wal-Marts. It costed me about $25 CDN.
I'm really loving it, doesn't need any connection to the Wii, which surprised me. I thought it would have a wireless thing that would plug into the USB or something, but it doesn't.
I recommend it.

I'm extremely lucky nothing has happened to any of my Wii's wires (especially the sensor bar). After all, we've got a cat that chews on everything, a dog that pisses on everything, and another dog that eats and chews on everything.. I caught the cat trying to knaw the sensor bar wire in two before, just in time.. Lucky for me it still works. Good to know wireless sensor bars exist.

Thankfully, my sensor bar is out of the way when it comes to vacuuming. However, I don't think you should purchase the wireless sensor bar since batteries aren't cheap. It's your choice though...

^ That is why, rechargable batteries exist, my friend. Either way you'll be using about the same amount of electricity, whether charging the batteries or using the sensor bar directly plugged into the Wii, yes? I'm probably wrong, since it's usually more complicated though.....
