No USB play-n-charge kit is unacceptable, Nintendo.. especially with the low battery life and high ratio of charge time to battery life.... sigh...

I hope you can plug-n-play with an AC adapter, at least.


usb play-n-charge is useless unless you like sitting within a meter away from your console, meaning if you have a 40inch TV or bigger you are too damn close.


What makes you think usb play-n-charge has to be within a meter?

Voila: http://www.amazon.com/Controller-Charge-Cable-Black-Playstation-3/dp/B003A0T6YS/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1348099563&sr=1-1&keywords=usb+charge+ps3

2 meters.

EDIT: And look.. over 3 meters.. http://www.amazon.com/USB-2-0-5-Pin-Mini-Cable/dp/B00112BA78/ref=pd_cp_vg_0


why would I buy an extra cable? How does an AC adapter differ so much? You plug it into the power point instead of your console. no biggie.

 

I bet Nintendos logic behind it was not to conenct to the WiiU as people may get to excited and pull the wiiu off the shelf when panning aroudn the room, remember hd tvs plus wii remotes initially?

Also the one thing is how we currently do not know if the ac adapter has a micro usb end? if it does, surely you can purchase your own USB cable and connect it to the WiiU to charge.
