    PS3 Motion Controller 'Arc' getting Nunchuk device

     

    It all started with the Six Axis getting last minute, unnecessary motion controls, and now it's final led to a full scale copy cat design of Nintendo's Wiimote. Tell me, when will it all stop? Apparently not anytime soon since developers are now confirming the existence of a nunchuk add-on, ala Nintendo Wii, that will work with Sony's "Arc" motion controller. 

    Previously, we saw Resident Evil 5 being played with the prototype Arc controller in one hand and a regular PS3 controller in the other. It looked uncomfortable just watching the guy present the demo; well, Sony seems to have solved that problem by looking over their shoulder to their long time nemesis, Nintendo, and got some ideas off of them. And it doesn't just stop there; there's talk that this addition wasn't made just for aesthetic reasons, but rather as a means to get developers excited about jumping off the Nintendo bandwagon and potentially making motion controlled games on a true next generation (HD) system.

    No images or video of the device are available yet.
