Pretty simple...What are all the different accessories that I can get for an NXT? I know this could turn into a list, but this will be a helpful list, I think.

The older RCX sensors and motors works just fine with NXT and the PF motors can also be used together with the NXT, either by cable (PF->RCX + RCX->NXT) or by using a IR sensor. Should we add those as well? Dec 24, 2011 at 12:49
