Anyone know what they were worried about happening? I still feel guilty...

  IIRC it was mainly a problem with cart based accessories like the camera.

  The low battery indicator doesn't work particularly well with recharchables. With a standard non rechargeable alkaline the voltage drops gradually as the battery discharges, so the battery light coming on at a certain voltage gives the user enough time to save their game and replace the batteries. Rechargeable AA batteries have a much flatter voltage curve - they basically give a stable 1.2V until they run out of juice and then drop rapidly. Edit: not lithium, Ni-MH

    > Lithium ion batteries have a much flatter voltage curve - they basically give a stable 1.2V until they run out of juice and then drop rapidly. Did you mean Ni-MH (and possibly Ni-Cd earlier)? Lithium based rechargeables are usually not in AA format and the voltage is closer to 3.6V.

      Oops, yes. For some reason I thought rechargeables like enerloop were lithium but I was remembering wrong.
