There is a battery expansion coming to the Wii U game pad that promises to double the controllers battery life. That means nearly 10 hours on one charge.
(Nintendo, Nyko, Wii U)
That Thing looks huge! Cant they make anything smaller? Nintendo should have come out with a way to charge 2 separate "packs" so I can just slap a new one on that's been charging... Or make this thing with a 10 hour battery, I'll accept a bit more weight for it.
Everyone on here who was complaining about the poor battery life, here is your solution. I knew we would see a 3rd party battery to extend playing time.
Here's a thought, how about taking a break after playing for 4-5 straight hours and go for a walk or do something else while your battery recharges? :D
