There's actually a pretty large grain of truth to that, because as much as Nintendo innovates, they also go out of their way to make sure they don't do things the exact same way as their competitors to differentiate themselves, even if it's to the detriment of their own consoles / business. Couple of examples:
-Sticking with carts instead of switching to CDs two generations ago.
-not jumping on the DVD bandwagon the previous gen.
-not going HD this gen, and giving their customers a half-assed online service (after years of telling us that online gaming wasn't important and that we didn't need it), and refusing to focus on online multiplayer, multimedia content and social features as one of the main selling points of their console like their competitors currently do with XBL and PSN.
