Thank you Amazon for the fast shipment and thank you Nyko for the good quality stuff!
The minor annoyances - you have to take care to sit the controller in the charger "just so" so that the charging light comes on. One little bump and it might stop charging one of your units. When you sit the controller in the charger, it sits there by gravity alone - nothing holds it definitively in place while it charges... There also does not seem to be a way to charge batteries unless they are actually in a controller. I have two controllers and had hoped to keep four batteries charged for those marathon sessions... I am thinking of trying out the charger sitting on its back to see if the batteries will charge that way - but as I have curious cats in the house, I know they might knock them out of place.
And - all the backings are black - so my blue wii controller is now black and blue.
Like I said, it's a minor annoyance.
Still, given the price, it is a really tough deal to beat. The batteries charged fairly quickly.
I hope to repost soon with a report on battery endurance after I've used them for some time - so far, they've done well, and with these batteries, they say they gain full capacity after the 4th or 5th full charge.
We shall see. 4 stars - took one off for the minor annoyances.
Out of all the "extras" that we ended up purchasing for our Wii, this has got to be the best! Goodbye to the days of replacing all those quickly worn out batteries!!! We keep this charger plugged in all the time, inside a storage ottoman (which is next to an AC outlet), so the remotes are stored safely inside, are nicely hidden, and the cats can't accidentally knock them down. You have to watch out for that, because they don't really snap into the charging cradles. Since the AC plug has a nice thin wire cord, it is nearly invisible running out of the back of the storage ottoman.
The battery packs seem to hold a charge for quite a while!! We haven't had one run out yet, but then we always keep them on the charger. The light lets you know when they are charging, and when they are done, and they can't be overcharged. Given the cost of batteries, this was a very worthwhile purchase that I would recommend to everyone!
UPDATED REVIEW (10/1/2012):
Well this WAS great, while it lasted. The kids got this for Christmas, and 10 months later, we discover one of the four charging docks was not working. Upon closer inspection, it appears that one of the metal contacts just broke off by itself. (the kids swear nobody was rough with it or broke it. ha.. who knows). In any event, this should not have happened! What the other reviewers said about the Wii remotes not being able to make a good contact unless sitting "just right" on the cradle is 100% correct. We've seen this problem too. However, since we keep our charger out of sight, they tend not to get bumped, so they stay on okay. It's just a shame that this unit could not be made a bit sturdier. Since we have 4 remotes for the whole family, I must now purchase ANOTHER WHOLE CHARGING STATION, just so we can charge all 4 at once, for when everyone wants to play. I feel it was a waste of money for just 10 months of use. But not much else we can do -- at least we will have extra battery packs now from the old charger, in case any of those decide to not take a charge anymore.
UPDATE: 4/5/2019 - Charging station replacement #2 now has one dock that is dead. Bummer, because my now teenage kids have become re-interested in playingg w/ the Wii again after several years of neglect.
