Yes, I asked about the analogue stick as no nunchuk like device was shown in the pics I had seen, and another person in this thread stated that the PS eye would be unable to do two player games, hence why I said that if its limited to that its a flaw.  Having a four player game with two wands each is 8 wands, at 40-50 dollars a wand you're looking at $320-400 just on wands, a massive expenditure, more than the cost of the system itself, which is still pretty high to begin with.

Thus, you're not pointing out the flaws in the product. You're speculating and, might I say, jumping on every chance to state -I quote you- "flop confirmed", not sure if about the new version of RE or the wand controllers themselves.

But discussing your attitude is not interesting, that's why my post was about what you get for your bucks when you buy -say- two wands.  Let me turn to your example instead: the corner case of a game supporting 4 players with dual motion control each. If such a game will come up yes, it will be expensive to buy all those controllers. Just as it's expensive buying multiple guitars or other instruments for music games, and just as it would be expensive to buy the 4x wiimotes/nunchucks/wm+ if the very same game was on the Wii.

The fact that controllers and accessories might end up costing you a lot of money is not new, is not exclusive to these controllers and is hardly relevant for your typical setup: 1 or 2 wands, up to 4 for your average party game or dual motion controlled 2-players local mp.

 

I'm basing my points on the evidence available.  Also while it might be expensive on the Wii, it would be far more expensive on the PS3, because Wii has many of these features built into the box or bundled with games, on the PS3, if everything is sold separately, then you have to get the PS3, three dualshocks, four or more wands, and then on top of that get the games, a much more complex and expensive endeavor for the average consumer, I mean lets just say that the wands are $50 each, and you need is four wands and four dualshocks, a dualshock at $50 also, so even before getting a single game, you've already spent $650 on the PS3 if you get the 120GB slim, then on top of that, you probably want 4 games to start you out, so you're looking at almost 9 hundred dollars spent, far more than what you'd spend on the Wii.
