Nyko Charger Grip

Platform: PSP
Publisher: Nyko
Review Type: Touchy
Version: Retail


Extra battery life is always a good thing. Nyko's Charger Grip attempts to mitigate the additional clunkiness of a strap-on battery by smuggling the extra juice into a Dual Shock-shaped grip. For someone like myself, a talk, gawky dork with semi-hammy hands, the extra Dual Shock-style contours are welcome. But the extra weight that comes along with five more hours of battery life isn't. When I hold my PSP upright (my modus operandi when kicking back on the couch to play) gravity pulls the mass of my gaming brick + strap-on straight through the outsides of my palms.

If you're a huncher -- the kind of gamer that plays your PSP like you're the throne -- the extra weight probably won't be as much of a liability. I'm just gonna have to buckle down on my charging habits.

The Nyko Charger Grip for the PSP retails for $29.00
