Nintendo has this gen sealed. Sony and MS won't be able to tap into the Wii market with their accessories, because they are just that; addon accessories that will likely be glossed over and recieve little developer support. Sony and MS do not know how to market to the masses like Nintendo currently does. However, Nintendo NEEDS to come up with a new disruptive innovation next gen, or they WILL be outgunned. Nintendo needs to keep distancing themselves from Sony and MS as much as posible and release something completely new each time they release a console, because Sony and MS WILL keep copying Nintendo. However, as long as nintendo keeps Sony and MS on their toes with new innovations for each new console and keep them appealing to the masses, they will stay on top. 

in a perfect world right?, who says microsoft and sony can't innovate.

and in this market there isn't such thing as copying or nintendo it's copying atari because it have a console.

nintendo it's now the apple of consoles, people say they innovate but they only have taken something done before and apply into their market.

I like how you guys use examples of Nintendo copying: they made a console too, they are now using an optical medium too, they will copy the others by supporting HD resolutions with their next console. You are grasping for straws.

Nintendo's strength lies in taking existing technology and using it in a way never done before. It works so well for them because they are a hardware and a software company and that's the reason why Microsoft and Sony can't innovate in the same way as Nintendo does. They don't understand gaming like Nintendo. They look at it more from a technology perspective and focus on making existing things better, but they can't establish a new way to play games like Nintendo is able to.

Not that they would even risk it in the first place, their management wouldn't allow it. Only a company like Nintendo could pull off something like the Wii. Microsoft's and Sony's motion control devices will show just how much of an advantage Nintendo has when it comes to innovating in gaming.

microsoft i don't know, but sony was able to do it successful for more than 10 years. but felt when they try to go against microsoft.

but now they are more back into it roots.
