First announced in June at E3, the new controller will give the PS3 more Wii-like functionality, and the news came just as Nintendo announced it was cutting the Wii's price by $50.

Electronic Arts' Spore Hero and Spore Hero Arena will reach the Nintendo Wii and DS game platforms in October.

Nintendo's Wii had been on winning streak. The video game was so popular, Nintendo watched its profits triple over the last three years.

But in Tokyo Thursday, the company announced its quarterly profits fell 61 percent, and sales of Wii consoles fell for the first time since the product came out in 2006.
