The Wiimote Jacket isn't really as much of a hassle to change batteries. It's stretchy, it's designed so it can be partially bend to give you complete access to the battery cover. I never complained, except for the fact that with rumble plus the speaker, the Wiimote eats through batteries fairly quickly.

With my playthroughs of Galaxy with Mario and Luigi, I had to make at least 4 battery replacements. We're unusually quite low on batteries in this house, which is unusual, we usually have tons of unused AAs lying around in places that have devices that need them.

Rechargeables last longer per charge and are, you know, rechargeable.
That was a joke.

I don't know why we don't get rechargeables.

I removed the wii jacket. I havent bothered to play the wii with it. I shall eventually play the wii with the wii jacket. There is this thing called a wii charger, its about $20, comes with rechargeable batteries and a charge station for 2 wiimotes.

I actually heard one of those charger things was killing off people's remotes...

Ah, that would be the Psyclone Essentials Wii Recharge Station, which fails to stop charging once full capacity is reached.

I just got my Wii so I have the jackets, and I couldn't imagine playing without them! They are really comfortable to hold, much more so than a Nintendo 64 or Game Cube.

I don't actually have any jackets, mainly because I'm too lazy to order one. That, and I've never hit anything whilst using the Wiimote anyway.

I use the Jackets. I love them for their comfortable grip.
The not worrying about damaging anything by dropping/throwing the remote is just an extra.

You can place another order.  They keep track of how many you've ordered in total.
