Screw you, Virtual Console.

It's one Nintendo system that I wouldn't mind getting pushed back every so often.

The Wii needs the infrared dots of that sensor bar for pointer controls. All the precise controls wouldn't have been possible without it.

Now with Zelda they're showing that WiiMotionPlus can do the same thing without a sensor bar... But for Wii U I'm pretty sure they'll include it. Not only for Wii backwards compatibility, but also because it's always good to have a point of reference for your controller.

And if you meant the sensor bar should have been on the Wii... That would mean my Wii would have to lie in front of the TV all the time. =/
