Why is the Sensor Bar mentioned? Does the standard Wii U in Japan not include one?

Well if the problem was that everyone thought the gamepad was an attachment for the Wii, and that in part help to hinder sales, the next best thing is to bundle it with the generation defining game of Wii Sports to help squash any further confusion that someone might think this is something new.
