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?

<p>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.</p>
