In the past months, a number of third party accessory manufacturers like Nyko and Joytech have come up with their own Wiimote charge stations.

We don't need to reiterate the importance of this for all Wii users. For all we know, all those controller accidents in the past may have been caused by a low-level batt and not by overzealous players swinging their Wiimotes to no end. The sensors, of course, tend to become weaker without energy supply.

Anyway, the rather bummer thing about this one is that it looks like they're headed only to Japan, or that is what one commenter is saying. What do you think guys, looks legit enough? If this turns out to be true, this is rather good for all of us. After all, good stuff originally slated for Japan are slowly finding their way here.

Japan or not.....at last - is my only comment

Japan? Japan?
Flippin Japan?
What about the UK???


I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed rechargable wii battery!!!

Ah I know, we're getting a rechargeable batteries in March, but, I need it now.

There should be something released before March (do I have to find the links again? lol) .

What goes to Japan comes to the US and UK in the end. Nintendo are at least addressing the issue - its so obvious that they need to provide rechargable batteries, I don't understand why they didnt do it in the first place.
