Couple of things. Search for Microsoft XWand and you will find demos of a motion control wand similar to Wii Remote years before the Wii came out. MS also had a motion controller for PCs years ago as well.

As for the Wii U tablet. back when Nintendo 1st unveiled the Wii U tablet I said that the technology already exists for MS to use existing tablets and especially with Windows 8 upcoming to do the same or very similar with tablets and/or phones. Last year at E3 we already knew that we could hook up "Xbox Companion" devices to the 360. So with that capability released last year, maybe it is Nintendo that copied the concept.
