staude - innovate != invent, don't get the words confused. Example - Nintendo did not create Bluetooth, but they used the technology to be the way the Wii remote communicates with the console, thus innovating a new type of controller.
Regarding D-pad prior to the NES, I can't recall ever seeing one before that, got any documentation on prior versions?
back to OP - Nintendo buys Sony confirmed?
