I can't give Nintendo credit for the analog stick. They weren't the first and many innovations came from elsewhere before they were incorporated by the "big three", such as the light gun.

Let's see.

Nintendo with the d-pad and shoulder buttons, two mainstays of gaming. They innovated portable gaming. Rumble, though it's vastly overrated. I believe the Power Glove was the first motion controller. Also, a lot of stuff that didn't go anywhere.

Sega with a controller you could actually hold without damaging your hands. They introduced internet play. First dual triggers? I'm not sure about that one.

Sony with DVD/media playback. Camera based motion controls. Also my favorite innovation, dual analog control.

Microsoft--mass storage?

Nintendo with the most, obviously. If we're talking most important, that would be closer.

In fairness Sega came out with a controller in the late 80's/early 90's for the master system with shoulder buttons (and a modern analog stick for that matter)
