<br/>Nowadays, Dolphin can directly pair and connect to RVL-CNT-01-TR remotes without the aid of 3rd party software/hardware in all currently supported desktop OSes. Most content of this guide is only applicable to older OS versions that are not supported by Dolphin anymore (e.g. Windows 7/8/8.1), or relies on discontinued software, not available anymore (e.g. Toshiba Bluetooth Stack).

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 <samp>RVL-CNT-01</samp>, the new Wii Remotes register as <samp>RVL-CNT-01-TR</samp>. 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 <samp>RVL-CNT-01-TR</samp> Wii Remote Plus in Dolphin.
