Review on Wii U GamePad Charging Cable - Tomee by Bill Howard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Meets my needs for legacy systems

Like many other reviewers, this cable doesn't deliver enough current to keep the gamepad at full brightness and charge. I plugged it into one of my most powerful USB AC jacks and it can support power, but the charging indicator goes on and off and the screen goes light and dark (just like plugging in and unplugging a Nintendo power adapter). ). To solve this problem and charge while playing I need to set the gamepad brightness to 1 or 2 (out of 5). Which is actually not that important to me. The cord I received was 10ft as shown in the product image which was a pleasant surprise. 10Ft is really good. The end of the GamePad is snug and fits well. It doesn't dangle like a Nintendo AC plug. I like this landing. It's not too tight and not too loose. It seems to me that this is necessary. All in all, this is a pretty decent product. I use mine on my couch about 10-15 feet from the console and TV plugged into a USB/AC adapter. I'm thinking about buying another one for the gamepad charging station.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Great Price
