Advantages: No changing batteries Disadvantages: Awkward to use with skins
Our house has been a very happy place since we bought a Nintendo Wii, hours of fun have been spent and we have only had one real problem. Well not a problem, more a niggle, but a niggle none the less.
Let me explain
When you first purchase a Nintendo Wii, you are supplied with a controller that is called a Wii remote. This is one of the integral parts of the whole Nintendo Wii experience. The Wii remote takes 2 AA batteries. Nintendo have said ... ...set of batteries. I have found that depending on the type of batteries, this can be seriously reduced. In one case I got less than 2hrs from a battery change (ok they were cheap batteries that I had bought from a pound shop). We have two add on controllers that plug directly into the back of the Wii remote, neither of these have their own power supply, so they will obviously use some of the battery power in the Wii remote. These are; The Nunchuk ...

Advantages: Saves you a lot of money otherwise spent on batteries, Looks great, Batteries last a long time. Disadvantages: Feels cheap.
...I was directed towards the GAMEware charging station for the Wii, the charging stand comes with 4 special batteries and Wiimote battery covers necessary to charge the Wiimotes.

Advantages: Keeps your remotes ready for action Disadvantages: Takes ages for the first charge
