Great idea, design could be improved,

At first we thought this would be a good way to reduce the consumption of disposable batteries on the Wii console. It helps you achieve that goal, but with some caveats. The concept is simple: replace the conventional batteries in your controllers with battery packs from a charging station. Place the controllers on the charging dock (that's right) and the light under each controller will glow blue, indicating it's charging.

Wii controllers use tons of battery power, period. Keeping buying new batteries is wasteful and expensive, so you have a few alternatives: get rechargeable AA batteries or this device, the Nyko Wii Charging Station. Of course, rechargeable batteries are much more versatile as you can use them in any device that requires AA. The charging station batteries are used ONLY with Wii controllers, so they are disposable and not always a good investment. unless you use the Wii a lot like me. ะ’ ัั‚ะพะผโ€ฆ
