The same basic technique is used for BOTH systems(identify two points via a CCD camera and use those to adjust the game's viewport). In fact, the PS3 method is actually a bit more advanced, since it uses technology to identify the player's eyes in order to adjust the perspective.
The only real downside to the PS3's approach is that the PS Eye is an optional peripheal and not included with every system like the Wii remote is(The PS Eye would cost more than a pair of LED glasses would). Well, that and it takes more processor time to analyze the image, but the PS3 is considerably faster than the Wii anyway, so that's a moot point.
It's also worth noting that Nintendo didn't do this first. It was a hack done by a creative individual not associated with Nintendo in any way and done via a PC with a bluetooth adapter, not the Wii itself.
Strangely EA is the first company to make use of the technique in an actual game. It's slated to be a little easter egg type feature in Boom Box.
