Problems arise when you consider that it has a short battery life (I've use rechargeable batteries and I've had to recharge it twice already)


I'd like to believe that but we've been hoodwinked on this one.  I think they meant 480 without use and maybe 30 hours in use.  The battery that came with the CPP died after I finished the campaign in RE:R and was playing a lot of raid mode.  That's when I went and purchased the rechargeable Duracell AAA batteries.  The fully charged Duracell died one day last week during a marathon session of MGS 3.  31.5 hours of Resident Evil and 24 hours of Metal Gear is what my 3DS Activity Log says.  http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=4435991


Really? Super wierd. I've put in at least 25 hours into RE:R and another 10 in Metal Gear and mine is still going strong. 

 

PS: Is your final verdict going to be just whatever wins the most categories or are you going to weight categories? For example, I care more about games and controls than everything else combined... squared. 

He probably has a defective unit or a streak of bad batteries.

The only other thing I can think of (God, that Call of Duty ad is annoying.  I'm trying to type and the screen is moving up and down....) is that I often carry my CPP in my backpack.  Maybe a button is being pressed and draining the battery.  If it's only happening to me and nobody else, it's gotta be me, right?
