If "innovation" means another type of controller I don't really care. It's cool, but I don't see how it makes anything more fun. I'd rather just have an altered version on the controller I already love and then have some peripherals that experiment a little more.
In this day and age software probably counts for more anyway (OS and its features, UI etc.).

It's not about a controller tha makes things more fun so much as it is about a controller that allows you to play your games more often. It's nice having a console that I can play games on even when the TV is being used for other purposes. It means I can have the console in the living room rather than in my bedroom where my ps4 will go. That alone is innovative. If anything else comes of the controller that is only icing on something that is already a cake.

That sounds cool, but I imagine I'd hardly ever use it. It's just not a big deal. And if somebody bothers you about using the TV while you game so much then surely you'll just move your set-up somewhere else.
Don't most people have multiple TVs anyway? Isn't playing on the TV preferable? The range also sounds like an issue... I've heard something like 20 feet from Ninty but less than half that from others (if it is indeed 20 feet than that's fine).
I don't mean to sound like a downer, I know there are positives to the Gamepad and I know it has potential, but it doesn't feel nearly as significant as the Wiimote was for example.
