Wii remote charging station

Question

Hello,

I just bought the Wii, it comes with a dock that allows us to charge the controllers, but I have the impression that I can only charge the controllers if the Wii is turned on!
Does leaving the Wii running idle cause any damage?
Is there another way to charge the controllers?
THANK YOU
Configuration: Windows 7 / Internet Explorer 8.0

Hello
Go to your Wii settings and enable Wii Connect 24, this keeps the USB ports powered to allow you to charge your remotes, and you'll have an orange light instead of red when the Wii is turned off.

You have to either leave it on or put it in sleep mode (to put it in sleep mode, you need internet). There are other ways, but you still have to keep it on.

I think it's the same for the PS3; you need to turn on the console to charge the controller. However, the advantage of the PS3 is that it's wired, so you can always charge and play at the same time, while the Wii has a dock, so you might not be able to use the Nunchuk. Maybe you should check with the stores to see if there are extension cables available as chargers.

Either you buy other batteries (strongly recommended) or if they are rechargeable batteries you use a device that charges the batteries.

Whether on Xbox 360, PS3 or Wii, it seems to me that you always have to turn on the console; at least you are not forced to play, you just charge, that's all.

In order for your controller to charge even when your Wii is turned off, you need to connect your Wii to the Internet. When it is connected to the Internet, the power button (when the Wii is off) glows orange. After that, your controllers will charge even with the Wii turned off.

Good evening, the base is equipped with a USB cable, I plug it into my PC when I use it; it's easier than leaving the console on!
