Joytech Wii PowerStation
Thursday
Rechargeable wiimote battery packs. December 19, 2006 - The Wiimote sucks…power that is. It is, in fact, the greediest wireless controller we've ever used. Chucking multiple AAs every week or two isn't good for the environment or your cash on hand, and we've been anxiously waiting for some manufacturer to follow the 360's example and release rechargeable battery packs for the Wiimote. Joytech will apparently be the first out of the gates with just such a product, the first pics of which hit the street today. The Joytech PowerStation is currently slated (according to a UK online retailer) for launch on January 26th of next year, priced at $39, or 30 Euro. The kit includes a base station that displays and charges two Wiimotes at a time and two rechargeable battery packs. Small legs apparently extend from either side of the base to hold the Nunchakus. The picture is likely a mock-up and we expect the final product may look somewhat different. Nevertheless, more Wii gear is always exciting, especially the kind that helps save the world and make Al Gore happy while he waits to give Lindsey Lohan a big piece of "advice."
