"This would be genius."

Sony would admit that waggle is the way to go and the PS3 would be instantly dead if they keep the PS2 alive with such a peripheral.

"The PS2 would have a far better library."

How so? All these games weren't made with waggle in mind.

"The extremely high install base could easily buy a new controller for these games."

But why would they? The Wii will have more and better games with waggle support.

 

First of all, Sony had the Eye Toy before, and now has Sixaxis. They are not shying away from motion control. Your target there is Microsoft.

The rest of PS2's library does not suddenly go away. Not all games need waggle. I am saying the $99 PS2 would be very tempting for a lot of people because of the library as well as the new controller.

A lot of games are already on the Wii and PS2 (and PSP for that matter). Games would merely require a controller option for future ports.

Edit:  Again, I say it would be a geinus move.  It would marginalize the Wii's advantage.
