The Wii U GamePad's wireless nature is kind of a figure of speech, what with how often its out-of-the-box battery life requires a charge. Nintendo's high-capacity GamePad battery (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/10/10/wii-u-gamepad-high-capacity-battery-lights-up-the-uk-germany/) has jumped shores to offer a solution to the annoyance, as long as you're willing to pay $32 for it.

The product listing states the new battery pack "offers up to 8 hours of use," which it compares to the existing GamePad battery's "3-5 hours." Users will need just a screwdriver to install it before they get back to hosting parties withSuper Mario 3D World (http://joystiq.com/game/super-mario-3d-world) and discovering nightmare-worthy creatures in Pikmin 3 (http://joystiq.com/game/pikmin-3).
