PS2 getting "Wiimotesque Device"

I believe this was a rumor I created a thread about (and apparently it wasn't the first), and I believe most Nintendo fanboys on this site shot me down. Well, we'll see what the games are, because the device is coming. Like I said then, I think this is a genius move because games like Raving Rabbids and Boogie are already ported to the PS2 and games like Madden look like the PS2 version.

How can you read this and claim "I was right?" It's verifiable proof that you aren't. I actually read this hours ago and specifically thought of your thread, and thought "Welp, if we needed more evidence that Windbane was wrong, we have it." This isn't made by Sony, it's made by a third party. Other than simply allowing this peripheral to be made for their console, Sony is not supporting this in any way -- they aren't making the controls, and they aren't making any software for it at all.

And we also have a thread on this already.
