Motion-controlled gaming peripherals specialists Performance Design Products have unveiled two new controllers at GDC – a Wii Remote style stick for the Xbox 360 and a bizarre-looking chunky pen-style controller for the Nintendo DS. Gametrak Freedom connects to your Xbox 360 via a base unit hooked into the USB input port and is described as a proprietary and patent-pending ultrasonic 3D motion sensing technology that delivers performance, increased control and flexibility. TechRadar should be getting hands on with the new Xbox 360 motion controlled peripheral in the near future. If that wasn't enough gaming peripherals news for one day, the company has also unveiled its new SmartStylus device for the Nintendo DS which features vibration feedback and can include a variety of added features, including LEDs, sound and motion feedback. PDP is awaiting confirmation that Nintendo is happy to license this device for use with the DS. If all that is being signed off, then the company hopes to get all these controllers on the shelves by autumn this year.
