It's not a charger cord per se, but the convenience of just setting the Gamepad on the cradle at the end of the day is awesome. Plus, comes with 2 rechargable batteries for your wiimotes. Overall worth the $12.

I have this Energizer dock, but unfortunately it forces you to change the battery covers to black varieties. When you have a WiiMote condom on the remote, however, you can't really tell they're there.

I just bought this and I love it. As cheap as most wiimote only docks, comes with wiimote batteries, and eliminates the need for multiple docks. Also, having had the original Wii since launch day, I've aways found Wiimotes to be fucking battery monster. Not even being in use, they seem to drain batteries fast enough that I'm constantly having to recharge them every time I want to play.

Well a charge kit for a gamepad and two WiiMotes is $12 on Amazon right now...with prime. I suggest buying that.

BAM!

We got an enegizer charging station (http://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Station-Wii-U-Nintendo-6304900/dp/B00A878J5I) that does 2 wii-motes + gamepad. It's okay but not the best.

Firstly, you need to take the wrist straps off so they can sit properly in the cradle. This also means you can't charge them with the rubber sleeves on them.

Secondly, the lights are REALLY big and bright. We have our wiiU in our room and the lights from it are so bright it's like having a nighlight.

I've never used one but the Charging Dock you linked to has one review... It's 1 out of 5 and the guy states that the contacts are near non-existent. However, this Youtube review seems to give it the thumbs-up. Although it doesn't accommodate the Motion+ addon for standard remotes or the rubberised sleeves.

Personally I'd stick with rechargeable AA batteries for the Wiimotes. At least you can change them when they degrade instead of having to buy replacement battery packs (assuming Nyko sells them separately).

::EDIT:: Just had a quick look around and the Energizer Wii U Dock gets much better reviews if you still want to go that route: http://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Station-Wii-U-Nintendo-6304900/dp/B00A878J5I not only is it cheaper but if Energizer can't make a decent rechargable battery, nobody can :)

u/SaebraK · 2 pointsr/wiiu

Actually I have an engerizer station, but this is a brand I trust.

u/[deleted] · 2 pointsr/wiiu

best in the game you can charge wii u and nunchuks comes with rechargabe batteries http://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Station-Wii-U-Nintendo-6304900/dp/B00A878J5I

u/gloveraran · 2 pointsr/wiiu

Yikes. Good that Nyko's stepping up, but sorry to hear about your experience.

I was on the fence between the Power Pak and the UBoost, but opted for the latter because I could just walk into a store and pick it up instead of waiting for it to be shipped from someplace online. Guess I might have dodged a bullet with that choice, although I'll probably get a Power Pak when they resume production anyway - the UBoost doesn't fit in the Energizer charging cradle so I've got two outlets taken up by that and the standard cradle, right now.

u/topplehat · 1 pointr/wiiu

This is very cheap but I would recommend something like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A878J5I/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

So you can charge Wiimotes too.

u/OneSchott · 1 pointr/wiiu

No, I ment thishttp://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00A878J5I?cache=531f763e2c5c3d52d66f4036218669a7&pi=SY200_QL40&qid=1405864875&sr=8-1#ref=mp_s_a_1_1

This one works great. I own it and the batteries last sooo long... Also it seems to keep going on sale for 11.99 from time to time so I would wait but it's the best bang for your buck when it's at that price.

Also sorry I can't hyperlink.. On a mobile version so yea

u/Houdin13 · 1 pointr/wiiu

I had the nyko dual for the Wii and it lasted over a year when the batteries died.

I just bought this and it is great so far.

u/NO_TOUCHING__lol · 1 pointr/gaming

I got the Energizer charging station for mine. Converts two of your Wiimotes into rechargables, it's fantastic.

u/dreas_yo · 1 pointr/wiiu

the usb cable that comes with the wii u is meant to be plugged into the wall outlet. not in the box. and there are stands where you can put your controllers. like this http://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Station-Wii-U-Nintendo-6304900/dp/B00A878J5I one. and you get a http://www.amazon.com/Wii-GamePad-Stand-Cradle-Nintendo-U/dp/B009AFLXTS with the wii u so use that. better tthan pluggin in the usb cable all the time

u/FlyingOctopussy · 1 pointr/wiiu

This one is 12 dollars and works great. It charges the gamepad and 2 wii motes.

u/CurbStomp64 · 1 pointr/wiiu

I'm pretty happy with this setup.
Also, don't buy into the lithium disaster hype, I'll take lithium over NI-MH any day, especially when it comes to heavily regulated devices like we use.

u/beautifulbouquet · 1 pointr/wiiu

Energizer made one: https://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Station-Wii-U-Nintendo-6304900/dp/B00A878J5I

I own it, but it honestly doesn’t work super well.

u/AliveThrouDeath · 0 pointsr/wiiu

This Energizer 3x Charge Station is pretty much amazing. I've had it as long as I've had my Wii U and haven't had any issues. It's also super convenient having one place to dock my Gamepad and Wiimotes.
