I don't really see it being all that successful.  It just costs too much right now.

I didn't think they meant that PS3 Move will be as successful as the Wii, but rather that PS3 Move feels similar to playing a massively improved Wii.

When I was finally able to try Sports Champions for the first time yesterday, I got quite a similar feeling.

I played Wii Sports Resort table tennis for quite some time, so when I tried Sports Champions table tennis yesterday I was instantly reminded of Wii Sports Resort table tennis - but it was just so much better in every respect! While the graphics for example did not set any new standards, they still felt like three generations ahead of Wii Sports Resort.

And the controls! Even though Wii Sports Resort is one of the very few games that makes use of WiiMotion to massively improve the precision, playing Sports Champions table tennis made clear that Wii Sports Resort table tennis is still pretty much just stupid waggling. Sports Champions table tennis in comparison is so incredibly realistic in silver mode and above!

Disc golf was a similar experience. I was instantly reminded of Wii Sports Resort disc golf, but in comparison to that it felt just so improved... I had fun playing Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort, but after playing Sports Champions, I don't think I'll be able to really enjoy these games again.

I was a bit sad I could only play Sports Champions though. I would have been interested to try a more EyeToy-like game like "Start the party" as well.
