kinda looks like the Wii wand.

This controller is best described by my favorite mash-up word : FUGLY!
Signature goes here!
I find the patent suspicious, only because most of Sony's R&D is done in Japan. It wouldn't make sense for the patent to be registered stateside.
Beyond that, video/camera tracking.... I dunno, leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Big brother is watching always.
Maybe the final version will have that ball painted like a giant fly eye? 
I hope for Sony that those drawings are only for patent filing sake, they must find a decent designer for the final product.
They should try to make more great games for ps3 instead of making differnt controller and other stuff.
This is the same company that made the waterproof walkman. They got designers and they got tons of respect because of it.
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

The patent is the real deal. Each country has their own patent offices, and you have to file a patent in each country you want to protect your innovation in. As it happens, USA is the biggest market in the world for nearly everything, so most patents are filed also in USA. Though, the inventor's address is in USA, so it seems that Sony does R&D in many places.

Im not so sure on the accuracy of that. Most if not all Nintendo patents occur in Japan, but hold equal weight oversees via the ITC

Hey, maybe they did such bad drawings to deceive MS, hoping they try to copy it for XB720 transforming it into a miserable failure!
everyone says that the innovation of the wiimote is 'waggle' everyone forgets about the IR aiming which to me is much more important, at leats until motion+ comes
nintendo fanboy, but the good kind
proud soldier of nintopia
