    I didn’t know why that hook existed until like 2016 when people were talking about using classic controllers and controller extenders that had it on the NES classic.

    2:07 Seeing the image for the Power A Pro Pack Mini reminded me that I've actually seen the Power A variant in the flesh before at a Walmart (during the Wii's prime years), I even remember holding the remote with it still in the packaging to get a sense of how much smaller it was compared to the real deal.

    Iirc correctly, if you're super desperate to play a Wii and need a sensor bar but can't get one, you can just light two small candles and they will function the same, as the sensor bar does no sort of interpretation, it only acts as two infrared lights for the Wii remotes sensor to detect.
