As Nintendo doesn't seem to sell any Wii U parts in the EU anymore (I was thinking about buying a new gamepad just to get a new battery) what's the best battery replacement for the gamepad?
So far I found:
Any other possibilities I didn't find yet?
So far I found:
- 3rd party batteries. Reviews differ from "all great" to "doesn't last 5 minutes" so does anyone know a reliable 3rd party brand? Please give valuable brands only: I have been burned with 3rd party mobile phone batteries in the past so I'm very sceptical here.
- Used OEM batteries. Either way to expensive or the seller won't talk about the condition, so might last for 5 minutes max. - Might buy a used high capacity battery for 20 € anyway, just to see how good it will be.
- Battery mods. Like taking out the PCB of a OEM battery and connecting it with a 3rd party (but valuable brand) battery. This needs more research but seems to be the best method. Does anyone know good, fitting 3rd party batteries for such a project?
