NBA 2K11 was the first series game compatible with which PlayStation controller?

The story behind the answer

NBA 2K11 was the first game in the NBA 2K series compatible with the PlayStation Move controller.

PlayStation Move was Sony’s motion-control system for the PlayStation 3. Its handheld motion controller used sensors and a glowing sphere tracked by the PlayStation Eye camera, allowing supported games to detect movement and pointing.

NBA 2K11 launched in October 2010 and was notable for its extensive Michael Jordan content, but it also introduced this series-level hardware compatibility. That does not mean the PlayStation Eye itself was the controller: the Eye was the camera used for tracking. Similarly, Wii MotionPlus belonged to Nintendo’s Wii ecosystem, while Kinect was Microsoft’s Xbox motion platform.

The distinction matters because the PlayStation Move system involved multiple pieces of hardware. In quiz terms, however, the controller being asked for is PlayStation Move, not the camera or the broader tracking setup. NBA 2K11’s Move support predates later motion-control experiments in sports games.
