Ok, I've heard a lot of bitching today. Sony copies what everyone is doing and improves it by a slight degree. They have been doing that for 15 years. There is absolutely no room for debate in that.
Now, Nintendo. Putting a tablet and APPLYING IT TO A VIDEOGAME console could be considered the innovation here; mainly because it has never been done before. But, before I confuse myself, lets define 'innovation'.
'Innovation differs from invention in that innovation refers to the use of better and , as a result, novel idea or method, whereas invention refers more directly to the creation of the idea or method itself.'
With that in mind, I guess Sony neither invented nor innovated. Maybe it is better to say Nintendo invented motion control with Wii, and invented tablet function in a console. Sony thought about Move and did not act on it for 10 years until Nintendo grew a pair of balls and risked it all first by having motion as the premier incentive for their console.

That first link is a bit of a serious stretch for what you are trying to prove here.
The second link involves motion...but not with remote. The DS being an advanced 1980 Game & Watch, that make sense! The 2nd vid in relation to Wii...not really.
None of those things went mainstream as far as I know. If they did, they didn't last long. 3DS could technically be called a suped-up Virtual Boy, but why acknowledge it copying a certain product if the one it was copied from failed? The cherry pick is impressive but uh, I can't really concede here.

yeah your reply doesn't really surprise me as somehow things are always twisted so nintendo is the only company that makes things, regardless all i'll say is that these kind of statements
"Nintendo invented motion control with Wii, and invented tablet function in a console."
are obviously bogus
