Kaz Hirai has come to the Tokyo Game Show bearing good news indeed: Sony's finally putting out a SIXAXIS with rumble, the DualShock 3. The controller will look exactly like the SIXAXIS, and is going to be hitting Japan this November, and North America and Europe in spring 2008. A few games in development have the function already, including Metal Gear Solid 4, and existing games can be updated with rumble over the PlayStation Network. Of course, the beans were spilled by EA earlier today, and Kaz says Sony let developers know about the controller as soon as it was decided upon, which would explain all the other leaks over the year. What Sony has constantly described as a technical difficulty stemming from the motion sensitivity of the controller has apparently been overcome, but it's still hard not to pin it all on that Immersion lawsuit no matter how much spin Sony puts on things. There's no word on price for the DualShock 3.

というわけで、平井社長のTGS基調講演で発表されたのはやっぱりこれ。直前にEAが漏らしてしまったためサプライズというほどでもありませんが、ついに！ようやく！やっと！振動が帰ってきます。名称はデュアルショック3となり、SIXAXISに振動がついてちょっと重くなったというほかはほとんど変わらず。TGSでは当初SIXAXISだった試遊台をデュアルショック3に入れ替えるという演出？がおこなわれるようですが、国内で11月というほか価格などは未発表。
講演後の(主催側の人が台本に沿って問答する)QAセッションで「デュアルショック3，どうですか？」と尋ねられた平井社長の言葉は「遊んでいて......懐かしいかな、と」。エミー賞(未遂)コントローラSIXAXISもそのうち「そんなのあったねえ」と懐かしがられるかもしれません。
