Wonderbook; The Book of Spells, the not-really-Harry-Potter-but-endorsed-by-J.K.-Rowling-so-you-think-it-is bundle of game and hardware, is gonna hit shelves in November, Sony said earlier today.
Sony's selling it in two forms: The Wonderbook: Book of Spells Move Bundle, for $79.99, which comes with the game, a peripheral, and the PlayStation Eye camera and Move controller that makes the whole thing go. Those with the Move and Camera hardware can get Wonderbook: Book of Spells by itself for $39.99—note that it still includes the official Wonderbook peripheral.

DISCUSSION
Honestly, for what it is, that bundle isn't bad.
People need to really back off Sony(slight fanboy-ism, but I really am trying to be unbiased). This isn't a completely ludicrous idea/creation. Have you people seen the images of the NES Knitting peripheral? At least this makes some damn sense, for kids yes, but it still makes sense.
