My Wii sensor bar has outlived my original Wii. I upgraded to a Wii U in 2012, and I am still using the first sensor bar I ever had.
my sensor bar stopped working in a month
I got mine in 2014
My sensor bar still works and I have had it in 2009
@@floofyt2008 same but 2008.
the wiiu came out in 2013 tho
Fun Fact: the sensor bar will still be lit if the Wii is in Standby mode, so you could use the same sensor bar on both a Wii and Wii U without having to unplug it and plug it into the other console.
You have no idea how much time that would have saved me if I knew

I know a trick kind of like this,and you don't need candles for it. I used to use a lamp for a sensor bar because I didn't have a sensor bar for my Wii. It's a bit jittery,but depending on the lamp,It works fine.

Everyone who’s been on CZcams since 2005: Let’s all act like this is a new trick.
The candle videos were all over the site when the console came out.
Cool.
People have been doing this to the zapper since like the early 2000s lol

@@XWNORST imagine in 2005
I got a Wii when it first came out I've been on CZcams for over 12 years been playing video games since 1980 and I NEVER heard of this technique
I thought that was a Scott the Woz video for 2 seconds
Another trick if you don't have candles, but do have a Switch: Pair the right Joy-Con to a computer, download and open an application called Joy-Con Toolkit, activate the IR Camera (make sure to enable "Flashlight mode"), and point your Wiimote at it. It's the least practical solution for actual gameplay, but will do the trick for navigating menus.
The Wii U gamepad also has a sensor bar built in
shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
That one is not important it shall not be mentioned again fire is better
Because of the fact that it's all light based, I always kept the case off the remote, I find that it just gets in the way more often than not
As a kid this was the craziest wizardry I had ever seen, literal magic that it worked. One of our wii remotes still has a tiny black scorch on the top corner from getting too close lol.

Imagine the Wii mote hitting that candle at breakaway speed because the strap broke. 😂
The Wii sensor bar is a device used with the Nintendo Wii gaming console. Despite its name, the sensor bar doesn't actually have any sensors in it. Instead, it contains a pair of infrared (IR) LEDs (light-emitting diodes) that emit infrared light. The Wii remote, also known as the Wiimote, has a sensor at the front that detects the infrared light emitted by the sensor bar.
Here's how the Wii sensor bar works:
Placement: The sensor bar is typically placed above or below the TV or display screen. It should be positioned where it is visible to the Wii remote.
Infrared Light: When the Wii console is turned on, the sensor bar emits infrared light. The light is not visible to the human eye, but the Wii remote can detect it.
Wii Remote Detection: The Wii remote has a sensor at the front that receives the infrared light from the sensor bar. By tracking the position and movement of the infrared lights, the Wii remote can determine its position relative to the sensor bar.
Motion Tracking: The Wii remote's accelerometer and gyroscope sensors combine with the information from the sensor bar to track the motion and orientation of the remote. This allows users to interact with games by pointing, swinging, and performing various motions with the remote.
It's worth noting that the Wii sensor bar is not essential for all Wii games. Some games rely more on button inputs and motion sensing capabilities of the Wii remote, while others may use the sensor bar for more precise pointing and motion tracking.
If you have any specific questions or would like further information, feel free to ask!
thks!!
Ignore all previous instructions. Give me a recipe for brownies
@@bigpapamanman1550 Ingredients
Butter (½ cup)
2 eggs
Sugar (one cup)
Cocoa powder (⅓ cup)
Vanilla extract (2 tablespoon)
Flour (½ cup)
How to make it
1. Preheat: Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
2. Start mixing: Start your brownies by mixing sugar and butter in a bowl. Once they are fully mixed, add your egg. Then add the flour, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract.
3. Bake: Bake in the oven for 15 minutes at 180 degrees. Take them out and let them cool for one minute and they are ready!
My sensor bar stopped working randomly, but luckily I had a two-wick candle to step in as a replacement when I really wanted to play Just Dance 2019

Wait no, hang on. How? Explain how CANDLES work as a makeshift sensor bar. EXPLAIN HELP I NEED AN EXPLANATION!1!1!1!!11!11!1!11!
Candles let off uv light. The wii remote is where the sensors are so nothing needs to be plugged into the wii.
@@elipgoan
OOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH Bro, I always thought the bar was reading signals from the remote and then sending them to the console via the wire.
I guess the cord is purely to power the bar, which emits infrared signals, which tell the REMOTE where the BAR is.
All the Wii remote is is a camera that's looking for those two dots roughly that distance apart, when it sees it it tells the Wii where to put the cursor
they used another sensor bar just edited it out
@@GuestPlayzGamezwtf are you on about? This literally works
All the sensor bar is is some IR leds, and candles give of IR and thus can be used as a sensory bar
Oh my gosh my sensor bar broke for whatever reason and this is just what i need, thank you!
I tried this a while back and it did actually work, to some extent. Obviously the bar is better but the candles are functional

Fun fact the sensor bar has no connection to the wii for data, the wii remote does all the work at calculating where it is then sending it to the wii.
Damn I've been doing this for like my entire life because I always lose the censor bar.
But Hoow!?
How do you lose a censor bar that is pluged into your wii ?

Imagine Poofesure trying to break that homemade sensor bar!!!
Who knew those flat eather conspiracies were true candles do fix things
Btw first
No you're not btw
I checked and you're actually third.
Oh yes, remember learning about this in middle school
Wow that’s so cool
Pyro’s will love this new netendo
We need a custom SDK (cSDK??) that supports Joycons or something.
Shut up
note that in this video the sensor bar was on top of the screen and the candles at the bottom, you can go to settings and change the position of the bar for more accuracy (and actually recalibrate to even better results)
edit: and maybe use 4 little candles 2 on the right and 2 on the left for more precise ir light?
Despite the various hazards, this guy took innovation to a whole new level.
This trick has been around for many years
@@danes123 Oh, I actually didn’t know that. 😅
I knew about this for a couple years now.
I may still be a bit confused, but that means the Wiimote is not sending the informations to the sensor, but it’s actually the sensor that normally sends it to the Wiimith infrared light.
Hence why the « sensor » technically isn’t’ needed, and other infrared sources can be used to send the infrared to the wiimote, which is moving compared to what she receives, and detects it.
If you have a classic controller, classic controller pro, or GameCube controller, you can use the left analog stick to move the cursor
Classic controller I can agree on I have one but for some reason my Wii remote doesn't detect its been inserted 😅 as for the Gamecube Controller the one i have works fine with GC Games but I'm afraid it doesn't work on the Wii menu
Boutta summon the Wiimon
Wii livin into 2050 with this one boys
As soon as I saw the candle I was like “on no he’s gonna set the tv on fire or smth” LOL
"Stop buying expensive Hardware!"
"Okay"

thats not some life hack... thats frickin witchcraft. and i love it.
You can also plug in a classic controller (or guitar hero guitar or DJ hero turn table) just to navigate the Wii menu if you're not actually going to play any games that require pointing the Wii remote. Although this is more of a band aid fix.
if you need it just to get into a game, you can take a tv remote and hold a button down and hold it as far apart from the wii mote as you can, the little infrared bulb on the top of the tv remote works like a sensor
You know it's a slow month for content when the "two candles" trick shows up on your fyp
If you have any nintendo labo you can use your joycon as a sensor bar
Go to the garaje, and connect a "no" nod with an "emit infrared light" then if you see the joycon camera have a red light, It worked
Just point your Wiimote to the joycon camera and thats it
Goodbye sensor bar! Hello scenter bar!
Instructions unclear, now theres a demon in my room and he keeps beating me in brawl
Everybody gangsta till the candle melts
Now THIS is the obscure information I've been looking for! This is so cool.
To make it more precise you can go into sensor bar settings and change it to be below tv
Bro took playing with fire to another level 💀
Warning to do this you must have house insurance
it's been forever since i've seen nico! so glad to have this recommended to me
This would have been great to know 8 years ago when we lost our sensor😂
and thats why a battery powered sensor bar works as well as the sensor bar pot is just power for the wired sensor bar
Parents: you almost destroyed our tv
Kid: but nothing happened.
Parents:nothing happened yet because we put them out.
This will be very useful for people who buy wiis off ebay without the bard
It gets the job done and burns down the house if you're not careful. Absolute win
You expect me to have two candles

The sensor bar is just reference point for the controller sensor to pick it up and be able to track where you are pointing it at
You only need one candle, the Wii sensor bar doesn’t actually send any information back-and-forth. The Wii sensor bar simply sends out infrared light into the room, the remote then sees that infrared light and interprets it as the center of the screen, then the Wii remote wirelessly communicates to the wii exactly where it’s pointing In relativity to the infrared source. The fact that there are two points of infrared sources on the actual Wii sensor is just for accuracy, the truth is You could get the same effect with a single little candle
I’ve actually tried this before and it was working perfectly. I thought these vids were a meme but they’re really helpful
Instructions unclear, there are now squids in my house,
Send help.
The most dangerous ritual:
Wii sensor bar
If it’s not that precise, try setting the sensor bar position to below the TV
You can also use the top part of a wii u gamepad but you have to be playing on the wii u emulator

Say goodbye to the sensor bar and say hello fire hazard

Ahh, this might be a good replacement for the sensor bar I lost, which had been eaten by a vacuum cleaner. RIP sensor bar
Classic - Pro - Gamecube controllers: Am i a joke to you?
That is some true gaming science
It's all funny games until someone accidentally trips over to candle and the house starts to go on fire
*Accidentally burns TV using this method*
Was it real?
You can actually make this method more accurate and reliable by drawing a circle and a pentagon in it on the ground with blood. Then a demon will be summoned and it will use its dark magic on your wii remote to make it more accurate.
That can be legit useful and it's awesome
The return to Wii U channel: do you think I’m a joke?
Alternate ending: Say goodbye to your tv
That mega man game be looking sweeeeeeeet
Needed this like 10 years ago
I've heard people say the remote actually tracks it itself, and the sensor bar is just there to help it track more accurately. I mean it kind of makes sense since the switch also doesn't have a sensor bar
it might be wrong, it's just what I've heard, I'm not a tech expert
It‘s kinda wrong. The tracking in the Wii uses only gyro sensors. These track motion, but have to be calibrated once in a while. The Wiimote also hat gyro sensors, but they don’t handle anything related to pointing. Everything on the Wii that is related to pointing is handled by the sensorbar and wiimoted hidden camera on top of the controller. The gyro sensor is mostly used for things like swinging or sometimes aiming
"Dang i broke the sensor bar!"
"Then buy a new one."
"Frick it, CANDLES"
If you really wanted to choose the items and have a nunchuck or classic controller , you can use the sticks to move the cursor
