Wii Controller Battery life?

[Nemmin]

Has anyone had to replace their batteries yet in their controller? I'm curious how long they last with just two AA batteries powering the sound, rumble, and nunchuk... Any info would be nice

thanks

Nope I havent had to change my batteries yet

Nintendo said about 30-60 hours. But I have heard its the low end of that estimate.

I've been playing quite a lot over the past week, and my batteries are currently standing at 2/3, according to the home menu.

My batteries are just about dead. The power level keeps on alternating between 2/4 and 1/4. But I have another Wii remote w/ full life batteries and a stockup on brand new batteries.

I've had to change them twice now. But that being with like 60 hours of game time. I highly doubt I will be putting that much time into wii next semester so I'm not too worried.

I had to change the batteries it came with because they were horrible. But i have some duracell batteries and ive played about 15 hours and its still full.

That's not actually very good. I was expecting more. I hardly every had to change the batteries in my GameCube.

I got a good 30 hours. I suggest rechargeable battaries bout 20 bucks worth your money.

it seems to vary, ive put about a good 40 in and the remote still says 3 4th battery life

depends on the hertz or whatever of your batterys.

For some wierd reason my second controller did lose battery yesterday and i have been playing it alot but not enough to lose all the battery. Also i use the first controller more than the second one so the first controller should have lost battery. Maybe did i not power down the second controller but i know i did and they console was off all night.

Hopefuly someone will make a USB to Wiimote charger cable - that would be cool.

Mine is alternating between full and 3/4 and I have played it about 20 hours with rumble on and the sound at the maximum. So I'd say thats pretty good.
