Nintendo pushed for gesture controlled gaming (led to the return of the PSEye and Kinect. Both which make the experience easier/better for most). Things are better for us now.

There are other controller design features that Nintendo made popular like the D-pad, shoulder buttons, the thumb-operated control stick, rumble and the diamond shaped face button configuration.  Current controllers made by Sony and MS are likewise influenced by these design features, the SNES controller being the archetype of the moderen day controller.
