Sony anounced they have delayed the release date of the PS3 Motion Controller

Although it was expected this spring, the new PS3 Motion Controller’s release has been postponed until 2010’s fall. Avoiding mentioning an actual date, Kazuo Hirai, President and Group CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. declared that the decision to wait until fall 2010 is suported by their desire to offer a new, exciting and varied line-up of software titles that will deliver the new entertainment experience to PS3 users.

Also, Sony’s stab at motion control for the PlayStation 3 is currently known only as the PlayStation 3 Motion Controller, a name that likely won’t stick. But is the glowing magic wand ultimately going to be known as Arc? They have time to decide.

VG247 says, citing an unnamed but “concrete source” who outs the PlayStation Eye powered wand as Arc. It was at one point known as Gem, at least during the prototype stage and to the best of EA CEO John Riccitiello’s knowledge.

PlayStation’s tech guys made a demonstration of the system at Develop last year. If you haven’t seen it, get it from here
