Fun realization: "Bluetooth 20 years ago" is how Wiimotes worked.

I agree with this.

It worked so well because they were able to make sure that exact chip worked well connecting to itself using a predictable protocol.

Oh, I'm not saying the Wii's Bluetooth was inadequate or anything (at least, I never had any issues with it). "Bluetooth 20 years ago" just prompted me to think about what sort of Bluetooth devices were around 20 years ago, and I realized the Wii comes very close to fitting that bill (and I guess was actually using a version that is now 20 years old). And then I felt old.
