According to IGN,

However, it turns out that the navigation controller isn't a necessity. If you want to, you can hold your SixAxis or DualShock 3 controller in your left hand and the PlayStation Move in your right and not miss a beat. The navigation controller does have a few extra buttons on it, but the ones you need to play games – L1, L2 and an analog stick – are all right where you need them on the SixAxis/DualShock 3's left side.  

I think a lot of us speculated on this fact but I guess it's true.
 
That takes $29.99 off the cost of the Move controller, unless you decide to opt in for the luxury of a smaller controller.

Kinda awkward, no?

" damn it you post it first... oh well  But yes! That is a good news... I guess.  I mean... if you're gonna hold a controller, you might as well play the game with a controller.  It kinda makes Move unnecessary.... Nonethless, it is good that they don't require your to have the navigation controller. "

  With the Kinect you can only wail about, but not actually control your character's movement or actions beyond that.  \

That sounds difficult.

Thats what I was just thinking.  I suppose it's a solution though. "

That's probably why they made a navigation controller. It's still good if you don't have money to buy a navigation controller and the move at the same time. "

The DS is a bit hefty but the Sixaxis seems fine. I guess it's one of the perks of having the older gen PS3 I suppose... (Oh, and emulation :D) "

What about like boxing or bow and arrow games? You need two controllers, and the Sixaxis nonsense won't be as accurate as the actual navigation controller. "

I just tried it with my own Dualshock controller. It is manageable to hold it in one hand the way you would with that navigation controller. I guess Sony must have thought of this beforehand.

yeah it SOUNDS like it but I don't want to denounce that idea with trying it for myself.  But this is good since the 30 price tag for the sub was a little much. "

I quasi tried it by holding my DS in my left hand and a wiimote in my right. Feels wrong. I'd hate to have to move around too quick with the DS. It might embed itself in my drywall. "

just tried it too. it's not uncomfortable.... so i guess it works

less then ideal but at least the option is there. i still think this with some analog stick would have been best. because then you have a dualshock and a move all in one.
 
edit: also hopefully this means devs can make move games with a navigation controller in mind and not worry, as everyone has a ps3 controller to substitute.

I just held my remote control(move substitute) and my dualshock controller in the same manner I would hold move. And it doesn't feel too awkward, I could actually get used to playing my games like that.

Well do you use buttons during those games? Holding the PS3 controller in the middle is pretty natural if you don't. "

I'll buy it if some money-space becomes available. Until then, I'll be happy using the 30 dollar cheaper alternative.
