5 out of 5 stars It does exactly what it says on the tin   October 23, 2008

I highly recommend this product for those who are sick of buying batteries for the very energy thirsty remotes.

As for the comments regarding the fan being quite noisy, there is a very simple solution: don't turn it on! It is not needed anyway.

Got this today and im happy with it :) 1st time charging takes a while,my LED lights change from red to green when charged ...lights and fan work,as stated b4 the fan is a wee bit noisey but once u start playing games you dont tend to hear it ..so overall well worth the money.Note : You do have to take your wii skinz off to charge..no big deal though.


5 out of 5 stars Matches the Wii so looks like it belongs   September 5, 2008

Does what it says on the box. I agree at first the fan seems to be a little noisy but you don't even notice once you get well into playing a good game. Nice blue lights on both sides look very cool and add to that "this should become one with the Wii" as it does look like an item Nintendo would have made.

The Dual Charging Fan stand takes it's power from the Nintendo power supply using a pass through and not a USB port leaving those free. No wires you just slip the Wii into the unit connect the power supply cable and that's it.

The battery charging lights show red for charging then green for charged, but while the Wii remotes are not placed on charge they both show green until you place the remote that's when they show red or green.

This is a very well built and sturdy unit from one of the best brands around Mad Catz.

This should cost a lot more and at this price it's a steal.



1 out of 5 stars im still waiting!   March 12, 2008

I have had this Wii stand on order since 17 Feb. It is now 12 March and I haven't had even a whisper from anybody to tell me where the stand is, how long it is going to be or even a sorry for the long wait. I am beyond being disappointed and I considering cancelling my order altogether!


4 out of 5 stars Good Product ..But...   February 9, 2008

The stand does what it says on the box. Plug in the battery packs provided and charge up the controllers. The write up says that the controller will charge with "Our" skinz still attached, which is probably true, you have to buy Mad Catz Skinz as the Nintendo one provided with the Wii does not have the correct cut outs to allow for charging.
Other than that, looks good and keeps everything together.
