hmmm. Port over Wii titles directly. So, does that mean Sony has some kind of nunchuk-like utility?

you use 2 wands.

So you need 2 wands to play a single Wii game that is ported? I do hope these wands are cheap. By cheap I mean half the price of a regular controller.

That and it seems kinda awkward... idk, guess I will have to see it in action. Also, if 2 wands are required to mimick the wiimote+nunchuk then 4 are required for a 2 player game?

hmmm. I'm betting PS3's motion oriented games will only be the shovel ware of Wii games and bigger games will stick to DS3.

 

Also, is your 2 wands idea, your idea or has Sony said / demoed that somewhere? If so, source?

I'd guess that there will be some controller remapping required for any port.  Depending upon the needed gesture of the nunchuk hand, the PS3 Eye may be able to capture the gesture without any additional peripheral.
