Post your Wii Accessory Finds Here

surfinrach90 · 02-19-2007, 08:56 AM

Okay today I've found like two more wiimote chargers and I'll probably find some more while browsing today so.. I'm just gonna post all the ones I find in here

Okay Most of you have probably seen me posting this around, it's made by Joytech and is available on Amazon right here

Okay the next one I stumbled across is this one here

I found this one Right here

I just heard that 3.5 hours of charge will give you 25 hours of playtime with that one.

And last but not least is this one

Also found this on Amazon

Okay newest addition to the clan, the 'penguin United Wiimote charger'

The included rechargeable battery will provide you with 38 hours of game playing time. Wii remote will be charged from USB cable using modified battery cover provided. Won’t be in store until Apirl BUT YOU CAN BUY IT HERE NOW

Hope this is useful to everyone and I'll keep this updated and post when I find some more

Awesome post Rach!

I can't wait until these things are in stores!

Wii_Smurf · 02-19-2007, 10:41 AM

They should have made it with a charger =/
Would have made alot more money for Nintendo xD
But good finds I must say

surfinrach90 · 02-21-2007, 04:22 PM

Just wanted to let y'all know that the list has been updated.

spicka · 02-21-2007, 04:26 PM

i shouldent have bought a stand, i should have waited for this...o well i have rechargeable batterys

wiiTENNIS · 02-22-2007, 08:16 PM

only 29.99, its a must-have wii accessory

TSKY74 · 02-22-2007, 08:22 PM

Nice finds. I was looking at the Nyko model, but here in the States, the release date seems to keep getting pushed back. I broke down and just bought rechargeable batteries and charger.

MetaBlack · 02-22-2007, 08:33 PM

I like the "http://www.thanko.jp/wiirech/" and the 'penguin United Wiimote charger'... Both seem to have a long battery life for a short charge. It's also nice that it connects to the USB port which eliminates a need for another outlet.

+Maniacal=Maniac+ · 02-22-2007, 09:16 PM

I LOVE That Second One... Small, Compact, And Connects By USB!

blueradio · 02-22-2007, 09:41 PM

I like Nyko's the best.
I want it really badly.

surfinrach90 · 02-23-2007, 08:50 AM

Okay haven't seen these posted anywhere so I thought I'd add them to my thread. Allthough they aren't wiimote chargers their still accesories. So here goes..

The GameStop Sports Pack includes a variety of attachments for the Wiimote to make the controller more reminiscent of the various sporting implements the controller mimics in Wii Sports. A baseball bat, golf club, and tennis racket attachment are included in the pack and purport to authentically recreate the experience of swinging the real tools.

GameStop also has the snappy looking Afterglow Cooler for the Wii. Though the Wii seems to be quite a bit more hardy than the overheating prone 360, GameStop's console stand incorporates a cooling fan to aid in ventilation and Wii-themed blue LED accent lighting. $14.99 will be the expected pricing.

Finally, GameStop will also be looking to grab a piece of the Wiimote alteration scene with the Enhanced Battery Grip. The grips replace the standard Wiimote battery door and add a swath of silicon for better grip. The grips will come in packs of two and will range in color among pink, green, blue, black, Wii-blue, Wii-grey, white, and dark grey. Pricing will be $9.99.

Borch712ers · 02-23-2007, 02:34 PM

^^^ Hmmm. Wont that afterglow cooler block the vent on the bottom of the wii? Seems to defeat the purpose of a cooler if you ask me....

EDIT: FYI I was going to get the Nyko one, but I had never seen the second or fourth ones on that list. Any more info about those? Release dates, prices, etc.

Well I have nothing on the second one sorry but with the fourth I found this on gonintendo.com and they said 'Won’t be in store until Apirl, but we are ready to ship tomorrow.' And Here's the actual link to buy it

Btw the link has now been put by the fourth charger.

surfinrach90 · 02-23-2007, 07:13 PM

Yes I'm double posting but heyy.. what the hell, not the end of the world is it?

Check this out:

From Nyko

Themadnun · 02-23-2007, 07:23 PM

won't replacing the battery door with a solid rechargeable unit make it impossible to re-sync wiimotes if they become unsynced? Because the Sync button needs power to work, and you must remove the battery door to press it, thereby removing the rechargeable battery pack = no power for sync. I think they're a great idea but they need a design workaround.

surfinrach90 · 02-23-2007, 07:36 PM

that's actually a real good point themadnun...I've sat here for the past like 10 minutes thinking of a way around it lol

Wow, that controller addition is really nice.

And fyi, im sticking with the nyko battery charger. It comes out first and i like the looks of it the best anyway. Plus it charges two motes at once.

surfinrach90 · 02-24-2007, 08:21 AM

Yeah I think most people will go with either the Nyko or the joytech one as it charges two at the same time, I personally prefer the second one, I like the look of it, think it goes well with the wii

AtomicAgeZombie · 02-26-2007, 03:24 PM

I emailed Nyko about the sync button question and here's the response...

"Thank you for contacting us. To answer your question, the Wii
Charge Station batteries are not connected to the removable battery
cover, so the synch button is not obstructed and the battery remains
in the port when the cover is removed. If you require any further
assistance, please feel free to contact us again."

So there you have it. I hope this will clear things up.

Later
