5.0 out of 5 stars
Get this for your Wii!!!,
By goosedude "goosedude" (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Nyko Wii Charge Station (Accessory)
Picked this up the other day....suffice to say they are selling like hotcakes at the Gamestops across the country.
This is a definite purchase for a Wii Owner: Included in the package is: Charging Stand 2 Rechargeable Battery Packs 2 Rubberized Battery Covers (Necessary to use) After unpacking the unit....you see that the rechargeable battery pack slides inthe the Wii Remotes battery compartment with a snap and has a protruding part with the 4 metal contacts for the charging station.....this is why the use of the rubberized battery compartment covers is mandatory as the covers have the hole for access to the battery contacts. Placing the controllers with everything installed into the charger initially worried me as I wasn't sure if I had to remove the Wrist Straps. Thankfully...you do not have to....there are small grooves on the left and right of the stand for you to lay the Wrist strab connection through. Charging of the 2 remotes from install took approximately 3-4 hours.....and everything works like a charm and it looks great. If you have a Wii....buy it....[...] with batteries....not too bad :)

This review is from: Nyko Wii Charge Station (Accessory)
As many other reviewers, I quickly learned after getting my Wii that the Wiimotes are understandably battery hogs. I'm a little surprised Nintendo didn't build something like this into the system. Regardless, this charger really does the job, and you almost expect to see a Nintendo logo on it because of the great job Nyko has done with quality and style that matches the Wii itself.
I don't use skins on my Wiimotes (just looks like a hindrance to me), so that hasn't been an issue, although I imagine it would be for any charger/cradle, not just this one. The rubberized battery doors required to use this kit really do improve the overall feel of the Wiimote. I don't know if battery life matches regular alkalines, but that's because I just put the controllers back in the cradle when I'm not using them, and they always stay charged! I haven't had the indicator on the screen get below the full 4 bars while I've been playing so far. Also, I prefer the wall plug setup used by this as opposed to some other models that plug into the USB port on the Wii. Those models can only charge one controller and take longer because of the power limits of USB. The wall plug also allows you to keep your charger somewhere else in the room if you like.

Battery is weak link,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Nyko Wii Charge Station (Accessory)
I have owned this product about 4 months and have had to replace the battery pack for one unit already.The Battery pack lasted about 4 weeks and then it stopped working it would just get very hot but had no charge. Contacted customer service who had me return the batteries at my expense and they sent me new batteries in a previously used envelope (I mention this as it is indicative of an extremely small shoe string operation not a solid company). The new battery worked fine for awhile but now one battery pack is definitely getting hotter than the other so will probably not last and is out of guarantee. I think this is a good idea just not a quality product needs to be re engineered and made by a quality company.
