Extending the Wii sensor bar cable

Dont be at yourself

I have a bit of a pickle...

My Wii is connected to my projector, which means that while the console is located to the back of the room, the sensor bar needs to be at the front.

I cut open the wire of the sensor bar, and spliced in a stereo headphone cable. I don't have a soldering iron, so I had to make do by twisting the wires around each other. This worked for a while, but after moving house, I notice that it has now gone on the blink, and doesn't seem to be working.

Is there an easy, permanent solution to this problem? I don't want to have to run out and buy a soldering iron or a wireless sensor bar, so I'd like to solve this one MacGuyver-style!

hey nekkid,
If you want i could do all the soldering for you no probs just drop me a pm if you want it done or alternatively you could purchase an extension cable for it. Its €4.17 from this lot but it will only give you an extra 5 foot

Go wireless! I have a similar set up and the wireless bar is just so much handier.

Get a decent one though, that takes 4 AA batteries and get a charger and long life batts
