From IGN.com:
"Watch Out Wii, Here Comes Fusion
Cross-format motion-sensor controller in development by In2Games.
by Alex Simmons, IGN UK
UK, October 20, 2006 - British peripheral developer In2Games has lifted the lid on a Wii-style controller it's developing that will bring wire-free waving fun to PC and next-gen consoles. Codenamed Fusion, the wireless controller consists of a sensor box and a Wii-mote-style baton that works with any USB-compatible machine, so titles previously exclusive to Nintendo's next-gen console could soon be appearing on both PlayStation and Xbox without losing their original control system."
Full story

I think I'm only surprised by how quickly they intend getting this out.  ::)
Still, helluva risk for any developers to throw money at making games built around this...

Nope, nothing. And this is great news for me, since I don't have any consoles. But I do have a PC! =) Iguess it just works like a gamepad/joystick, and gives the computer similar signals.

I think most of the people interested in the whole motion sensor controller are just going to buy the real thing (the Wii) anyway. Also, as mentioned, not a lot of game companies will base their control schemes on a third party controller.
