It was heavy at first but after 1 year not so much anymore

Nice ! You’ll enjoy it ! … I bought the Wii remotes on OfferUp or you can try Facebook Market. No they don’t come with motion plus you have to buy that separately. They’re easy to come by so you won’t have a problem finding them

My wife loved the Wii during her childhood. So I bought Real Wii Remotes. I bought this sensor and it’s working great. It’s just plug and play.

OriGlam USB Wired Wii Sensor Bar, Replacement Infrared IR Ray Motion Sensor Bar, Replacement USB Wired Infrared Ray Sensor Bar for Nintendo Wii and Wii U Console $9 on Amazon

Setting up the Wii remotes are very simple. On Dolphin , under controller configuration, select “Real Remote” and “continuous scanning”. Hold 1 and 2 until it pairs . And you’re set.

You only need the sensor for games that require it.
