Nyko Charge Base IC for Wii now shipping

Nyko‘s just unleashed its latest charging base for Wii controllers. This newest unit makes use of induction charging, so you can dispense with the sleeves, and just throw your contollers or Wands straight onto the dock for charging. The controllers are attached to the dock via magnets, and it also boasts a USB port for charging up other devices. The Nyko Charge base comes with two battery covers that are compatible with both Wiimotes and Nyko’s own Wands, as well as two rechargeable battery packs. It’s available now at Sam’s Club and Amazon, and retails for $39.99. Full press release is after the break. Also, be on the lookout — we’ll be giving away five of these puppies on Black Friday (among many, many other things).
