Wii U gamepad battery life information
This information comes from a NEOGaf member,
-Gamepad’s battery life is 3-5 hours
-2 hours and 30 minutes to charge
-depends on the brightness of the screen
-you can use gamepad while charging
Well, it’s about the same as a Nintendo 3DS, but at least with a home console, playing on the go won’t be an issue or worry since you’ll almost always be near an outlet to charge while playing.

Nintendo always makes very conservative estimates that are very reliable.
I was expecting it to last at least 8 hours on a single charge but this is okay with me since I do not play more than 5 hours/day. Nintendo better pack this in with a very long cord and a charging cradle
I heard it may also use the 3ds’ charging cable if that makes it better…if you have 3ds. (I do)
hi there its okay with me i just want screens every where like star trek
hi there wii u suports 2 wii u game pads
That’s okay–I only spend 2 hours gaming on the toilet anyways. Hahaha! 3 to 5 hours wireless and USB charging cable is fine.
3DS battery really s**t cause we share 3 person!
But gamepad is a console thing, I think battery life shouldn’t be much issue.
