The Nintendo Wii Remote Plus uses a new product ID and name. To detect them properly, we need to add them to the wiimote-module. To avoid an overlong "if" statement, this converts the match-function to walk over an array and check all VID/PID pairs and device-names. This makes adding new devices much easier. --- Hi Johan I am actually not sure why Nintendo changed the VID/PID for the new revisions of the WiimotePlus. I have a WiimotePlus which still uses the old numbers and works here quite well. However, I have now got multiple requests from people with the new device name and IDs. Unfortunately, I cannot test these so I'd like to have a "Tested-by" by Peter (CC'ed) before this is applied.

Sorry for the long delay. But I don't have the device so it sometimes takes a bit longer. Anyway, it doesn't do any harm if we apply it so yes, thanks for not forgetting about it. Cheers David
