wow, it already comes with a way long cable. Maybe re-arrange your stuff so you dont need an extension (sorry, stating obvious), or if you've got the dough try one of the wireless sensor bars...?

You do realise you don't have to have the sensor bar on your AV cabinet, right? - You could have it sitting on your coffee table/wherever, as long as it's in front of you when you are playing.

Anyway, I would try moving the Wii. Maybe an extension cord?
