AA batteries.

i recommend using rechargeable batteries as they will allow you to reduce the cost of purchasing batteries...and it is more environment friendly too i guess...XD

anyway, there are cheap AA batteries too in the market lately...like first choice batteries...and Carrefour brand batteries...you can buy those batteries like from RM8 for 10 batteries

im currently using this http://www.gprecyko.com/



and its quite good actually, last time i charge the battery around 2 weeks ago, and the battery is only at half. daily playing around 3-4hours.

how much those gp batteries? i remember buying sony rechargeable batteries. waste of money only that one.

bought at my local pc shop RM89

i'd recommend this one too. A Pega brand battery. I've been testing it my wiimote for it to see how it performs (since ppl said 3rd party battery are not good) and to my surprise this one is worth the little money i spent. Lasted about one week ++ with constant nunchuk bashing for the past week

some shops are selling it at RM59, some 40 but usually wii's accessories in my area ppl don't care too much compared to ps3 or 360 so since ppl dun buy it i got it for RM30 just so the shop can break even and clear it from their stock. Thinking of getting another one next week from another shop just for a spare

er...about the battery pack...you may be a lucky owner...but a majority of them (including me)...owns a faulty battery pack which doesn't even hold its charge more than 5-8 hrs although i've charged it to the max (which is 3 bars)

anyway, i bought mine together with my wii...and it cost me RM80 for it...=(...

I set mine to US, was trying to buy that day with CC but need to key in billing address, later they find out not really from US, will brick?

I've been using Sanyo Eneloop... only positive feedback from me!

that's right. that is what will happen if u set to US. that is y we all set to 'Brazil' if we want to purchase via wii shop.

bricking only applies to modded wii when u update the firmware either through wi-fi update, or via playing a game disc. changing the country to brazil is NOT updating firmware. so whether yr wii is modded or not, it will not brick. trust me.

most shop sell it for around rm80. only lasted me 1.5 months. both battery kaput together at the same time, imagine that. so far i spent rm170 on my rechargeable bats and still not satisfied. i got so fed up, i been using non-rechargeable ever since. i think i will go with eneloop bats for peace of mind. i never heard it fail.

mine is Pega...>.<"...LOL

wow...u must be really unlucky then. i just bought a second one and it performs as good as the first one

Yeap, thats what i use also, so far so good.

Hmm.. didn't i recommend that batt to u?.. lol

Really last longer than typical rechargeable, as its like a typical alkaline but can recharge one.

Imo, its typical pricing (slightly higher than normal rechargeables) for those type of batts like Sanyo Eneloop or Sony.

Somehow i dont trust those batterypacks especially comes with charge-dock.. esp. non-branded ones.. as u need to plug the whole wii remote to the dock to charge.. and if anything goes wrong.. overvoltage etc. it might just "fried" yer wii remote

And yeah, save the environment by using rechargeables

Cheers

u recommended it to me meh ? forgot lo all i know i just impulse grab the battery since i saw that battery at my local shop
well i did ask couple of ppl at forum tho, not remember ask at chatroom

i saw couple of review at play-asia, all those dock doesn't really good also. =/

nintendo should think like sony. ninty wants to save a bit on cost, but really for us users its not cost savings at all. i really appreicate the DS3 controller. even if no more charge, i can still continue playing like a PS2 controller.

nintendo don't care about that

i think wire will get in the way

ok then, make buit-in rechargeable.

wanna ask... if an Mod Wii wanna UNmod can or not???
where to find unmod Wii
Mod Wii cannot go online and create own Mii???
