Micheal Pachter feels that Sony’s pricing of the move controllers could be confusing to consumers.

In a post-E3 analysis Pachter said “Some games can be played with the PlayStation Eye camera and a Move controller, some with the Eye and two Move controllers, and some with the Eye, a Move controller and a Navigation controller.”

“In order to be safe, consumers wishing to participate in the Move experience will have to purchase the Eye, two Move controllers and the Navigation controller, plus a game. If purchased as part of a bundle, the all-in cost to play with Move will approach $180, which we think is beyond the reach of the typical household.”

“We think that Sony’s Move is truly impressive, but remain concerned that initial sales could disappoint.”

Move will launch in North America on September 19.
