Accessory Description
When a Wii U GamePad no longer holds a charge like it used to, long play sessions can quickly turn into tethered-to-the-wall gaming. This Rechargeable Battery Pack for Nintendo Wii U GamePad replaces tired internal cells with a fresh 3.7V 2500mAh lithium-ion power source, helping restore portable play to the Wii U controller with the touchscreen. It’s a direct replacement built for everyday use and installs inside the GamePad in just minutes.
Important Compatibility Note: This battery is for the Nintendo Wii U GamePad controller only — the large controller with the display screen. Not compatible with the Wii U Pro Controller or other controllers/systems. Perfect for getting back into Mario Kart 8, exploring The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD, or relaxing with Super Mario Maker sessions from the couch without constant charging interruptions.
Great for repairs, refurb builds, or as a backup cell for travel cases and family systems. Once installed, the GamePad charges normally with the standard Wii U charging cable or dock and is ready for marathon gameplay again.
