Nyko will be bringing a new lineup of accessories for the Wii. The products will debut at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada next week.

- Nyko Charge Station for Wii: $29.99
Simultaneously charge two Wii remotes with this charging dock. Includes 2 battery compartment covers with rubberized grip to help those butter fingery Wii gamers. Sounds like a good option to the standard batteries that can be consumed after about 2/3 weeks of regular Wii gaming.

- Nyko Wireless Sensor Bar for Wii: $19.99
If you want to get rid of that thin gray Wii Sensor Bar cable wrapping around your TV, Nyko will be offering this cord-free solution to the standard Wii Sensor Bar. The downside is those 4 batteries you just saved on the two Wii remotes with the charge station will be used with this Wireless Sensor Bar, as it requires 4 AA batteries. Four AA batteries will be included in the package to get you started. An audible alarm is emitted when the batteries run low.

- Nyko HD-Link for Wii: $19.99
For HD owners, you'll want to upgrade to a 480p signal with this component cable for the Wii. The cable runs $10 less than the official Nintendo Wii Component Video Cable.

We'll bring you an update with images when they are shown at CES next week.

UPDATE 1.7.07: MaxConsole has posted some Wii Remote Charge Station pictures here.
