Why don't they make a Wii version then port it to Ps3 for the wand version. Surely that would be the logical thing to do.

It wouldn't work. The PS3 wand already has shown that it will not have a thumb control like the Wiimote's nunchuck. There is no similar option for character movement, unless they push sixaxis+wand setups.

Yeah, I can't wait to see what they come up with.  Nintendo has the nunchuck design copyrighted I believe.

 The nunchuk, yes. A nunchuk-like device, no. Nyko was able to release their unauthorized copy, but they had to make it look and feel different from Nintendo's nunchuk. Sony can (and almost certainly will...) do the same.

It all depends on a few variables, like how the motion system works. The levels of the patent Nintendo has is unknown, and the allowable permissions that may have been granted to Nyko to make it happen all have a say in the matter.

Basically, if Sony had a solution for this by now, we'd have heard about it. They have roughly 3-4 months of product testing to get their product out on time. I remain skeptical that Sony will provide a means for character movement for now.
