this kinda reminded me of the US versus Soviet tank upgrades during the cold war.......the US would update its tanks ever 10-15 years and the soviets every 5-8.  The US made revolutionary upgrades to its tanks while the Soviets made evolutionary ones and ended up spending a lot more on R&D etc to keep its product going.    


Except Sony doesn't really do anything special with their upgrades, its just more power, nothing else, Nintendo on the other hand, changes the nature of the beast with their advances


Sure, they all innovate.  I would call kinect innovation.  I would call Wii motion control as well as the Blu-ray and 3d initives by Sony as innovation.  And 3d is a darn good strategy, as its going to basically force all 3d movies to be in blu-ray, and for movie theatres to buy sony's 3d projectors, and increase the market for 3d stuff in general.  It's a really broad reaching campaign that is going to do well.   I mean motion control vs that? wtf ,  it doesn't even compare lol


But these aren't disruptive innovations, Kinect, Blu-ray, glasses 3d, none of these have any disruptive potential as they are being used
