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?

Actually it's funny you should say this

Because wii doesn't use blue tooth. it uses a camera and 2 lights. Sensor bar imits 2 lights that the wiimotes camera picks up.

 

 

It's sonys ps3 controller that uses bluetooth to communicate with it's console. This innovating a new type of controller :P

 

And read my last post for the d-pad part.

As I see you've already been corrected about the Bluetooth, I'll not add more to that. You learned something new today. Indeed, using bluetooth is an innovating controller, especially when used with the combination of accelerometers to define position/location. I'm interested to see what exactly is used with Wii Motion Plus, as it seems very accurate.
