Get your PS3 peripherals while they're hot!

Three, count 'em, three peripherals have been named, displayed, and priced. What are they? First, the wireless controller. It will be retailed for about 5,000 yen... don't worry! You still get one with your PS3!

Secondly, we have the remote control that uses Bluetooth technology to interact with the PS3. The lovely BD Remote Controller costs about 3,600 yen. This little extra item won't be released until a little after the November 17th launch date -- about December 7th.

Finally and most importantly for long-time Sony gamers is the Memory Card Adapter. This lovely one-time-use device transfers all your memory card data from PS2 and PSX onto the PS3 hard drive via USB. It's going to cost about 1,500 yen. Which is entirely understandable for a single use peripheral. If you want all of these accessories, it seems like it'll tack on an extra $100 when these are released in the US. Ouch, but a necessary evil.
