You should probably stop hitting the crack pipe.
D-pad
shoulder buttons

rumble
Single-handedly legitimized home consoles
motion controls
touch screen controls
dual screens
legitimatized portable gaming
Virtually every single innovation in controlling games in the last 30 years has come about thanks to Nintendo. Not only is their software so far above everyone else in the industry, but just a small glance backwards show they're also the only ones innovating on the hardware front.
Can you imagine this generation without Nintendo in the hardware business? Piles and piles of dead publishers everywhere (more than we already have), and all of them unable to compete with Nintendo (who they couldn't run away from like they do now). All of them forced to make really expensive HD games thanks to the technological bullying of Sony and Microsoft.
Not only that, but you'd also have consoles, with what they're currently selling at minus Nintendo, considered all but dead.
With Nintendo dead, who would Sony steal ideas from? Microsoft? HAHAHA!!
