Fremont, CA (June, 2008) – Aware that more gamers are staying home due to the high cost of gas and a sluggish economy, Penguin United has announced the launch of a high-quality Dual Charging Station for the Nintendo Wii that can easily compete in quality with other similar products on the market.
With a suggested retail of $22.95, a built-in LED indicator, rapid charging ability and longer lasting NI-MH batteries, Penguin’s Dual Charge Station is the perfect alternative docking station for Wii fans. Now gamers can charge two Wii controllers simultaneously as they use the money they saved to buy overpriced gas for their cars.
"We are offering a Wii dual charger that is equal in quality to anything currently available but at a lower cost to the consumer," stated Penguin President, Richard Huang. "We are all too aware of the high cost of living which also means a high cost of gaming. We’re trying to make it a little easier on the consumer’s wallet while still enhancing the gaming experience."
Penguin’s Dual Charge Station for Wii is the first of many peripherals the company plans to launch in 2008 to a Nation weary of overpriced and under performing accessories.
