After a long wait, the DualShock 3 is finally confirmed for an April 15 release in the US, but third-party peripheral developer Nyko isn't waiting around.
Jumping ahead of Sony's plans, Nyko has launched a new rumble-enabled controller it calls the Zero Wireless in US stores this month.
Not only does it bring rumble to the West more than a month early, it also - as all third-party controllers do - tries to improve on other areas of the official product. It's got a few hours extra battery life, a longer range, an optional battery compartment, backlit LED buttons and aluminum panels to keep hand jam to a minimum.
If you don't mind the fact that it looks like the remote to a radio-controlled car (see below), or the (typically) bad reliability associated with third party pads, you can grab one now. It's $59.99 though, which is $5 more than the official pad will cost.
Nyko hasn't told us whether the pad will make it to the UK. But then, neither has Sony with the DualShock 3...
