Released only a year after the Wii MotionPlus accessory, the Wii Remote Plus is a Wii Remote with the MotionPlus addon built into the Wii Remote. Unfortunately, shortly after the Wii Remote Pluses came out, a new Wii Remote Plus type appeared. Whereas the standard Wii Remotes and the very first Wii Remote Pluses register as RVL-CNT-01, the new Wii Remotes register as RVL-CNT-01-TR. What exactly changed is unknown, but all -TR Wii Remotes may need additional hardware/software to work with Dolphin. Since all Wii Remotes for sale in stores since 2011 are -TR Wii Remotes, this has become a growing problem. Fortunately, they can work with Dolphin -- with some special requirements. This guide tells you how to connect and use a RVL-CNT-01-TR Wii Remote Plus in Dolphin. In the Bluetooth Passthrough mode, -TR Wii Remotes are not an issue at all. Refer to Bluetooth Passthrough for details. Many third party adapters also include a "PC" mode on their adapters, allowing you to swap between Wii U/Switch mode and PC mode for the best of both worlds, however some cheap third party adapters may not work as well as the official adapters.

The best part of this controller device is motion sensing capability, by which user can manipulate items on screens using gesture recognition and pointing. The pointing and gesture recognition can be done by using accelerometer and optical sensor technology to complete these controlling feature. The First Wiimote was introduced at the Tokyo Game Show on September 14 2005. Wii Remote PlusmacOS does not require any special hardware or software. It only requires a device be paired beforehand. A popular general-purpose, motion-sensing game controller is Nintendo’s Wii Remote. Shaped like a television remote control and operated with one hand, the Wii Remote is a motion-sensing input device that uses Bluetooth wireless technology to communicate with the Wii game console. Users point the Wii Remote in different directions and rotate it to control on-screen players, vehicles, and other objects. The Wii Remote also known as Wiimote is the primary controller used to control the Nintendo’s Wii console. After a long wait from the original prototypes that gave users such hope, MotionPlus emulation is finally here. Most games should be playable thanks to all of the careful changes done to Wii Remote emulation in general. Despite all of this, it can't be stressed enough that these MotionPlus games heavily rely on motions for their gameplay. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and Wii Sports Resort are very different experiences when played on a standard controller or mouse and keyboard. Some parts of the game that were torturous on console can be much easier, and you're much less likely to be suffering from Wii elbow after a play session. On the other hand, some complex motions just don't map well and may require some tweaking if you want to play a particular minigame or get past a challenging motion puzzle. In Europe, snakebyte launched its Premium Remote XL +, with built-in Wii MotionPlus, [35] and its Minimote, a smaller version of the Premium Remote, for children. [36]

During the E3, Wii Sports Resort producer Katsuya Eguchi explained that Nintendo could possibly in the future create Wii Remotes with this funcionality already built into it. Released in 2008, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed just missed out on MotionPlus, much to the developer's chagrin. See the review for more details, but be warned that review is from many years ago and the landscape has changed quite a bit. Gibson, Ellie (July 17, 2008). "Next Wiimotes may integrate MotionPlus".
