Here's what Sony should have done. They missed a big opportunity here. It's really a shame considering what they were trying to achieve and what they could have achieved.

They had the perfect concept between the two actual controllers, missing the potential of putting them together. Using this design, they would only have needed to produce one type of controller while validating the need to purchase in sets of two.

With one controller, you have the buttons for standard play and directional movement with the full motion sensing the Move is meant to provide. With two of them, you have all the buttons a standard controller has (with a few extra), plus two full motion control components. The only hitch would be syncing one controller as left handed and one as right since the face buttons overlap with the d-pad.

I'm sure that Sony considered this design. I'm not sure why they wouldn't go with it. The Navigation Controller is a huge waste of money since consumers don't have to buy it ever. I assume that Sony thought the design would be seen as complicated rather than simple like the Wii remote. While that reasoning is understandable, it is ultimately wasteful.
