Sony have lodged a patent which looks suspiciously like a pair of Wii Nunchuks. Are they using the same low tactics as Microsoft? "Let's steal the idea, then patent it so it looks like we know what we are doing" Except this still looks like Sony are a dog chasing a ball and wondering where it has gone.
Admittedly, not everything lodge with the patent office becomes commercial product and if pressed, Sony would probably say "get lost, nothing to see here, go ask Microsoft how their Nunchuks are going because ours only goes 45 degrees." According to the diagram, the controllers are "using a hybrid video capture and ultrasonic tracking system" What? Sounds like Sony employed some one from the weapons division. If you can actually launch missiles from the controller, then I am interested.
If you look at the diagram, crudely drawn, the console looks mighty small for a PS 3. Maybe it should have been marked as PS 5, as that is probably the time when Sony get this "nunchuk" working. And what's wrong with "Player B"? If he has only one arm, then he is totally screwed if they are playing Mortal Combat 9. If I were you, I'd Blackberry my stockbroker and start selling those Sony shares.
