Who introduced Analog sticks? Radofin, in 1976 then improved upon using potentiometers by atari in 1982 for the Atari 5200
Who introduced Motion Play? Sega Activator, 1993
Who introduced handheld to console play? Nintendo (You were right on this one, but wrong on the platform, the first itteration was the Super Gameboy 2, that allowed a person playing a gameboy game through the adapter on their SNES to use a gameboy link cable to play against someone playing on their gameboy.)
Who introduced shoulder buttons? Atari (Paddle controller says hi)
Who introduced dual screen gaming? Nintendo (Again right on Nintendo, wrong on platform, it was the Game and Watch)
Who introduced 3D gaming without glasses? Sharp (They briefly sold two models of laptop in 2001 that had parallax barrier LCD panels, i vividly recall playing quake 1 on it way back when they were being shown at a trade show.)
What has Sony and MS done? Microsoft made XBL and achievements. Sony made...I don't even know.
Since you don't know let me help you.
Microsoft:
Ethernet as standard on a console. (xbox) Also Nope, Dreamcast did this first.
HDD as standard on a console. (xbox)
First console with external replacable hard disk (xbox 360)
First coherant network ID system Already said XBL
Sony:
First commecial use of camera image processing to function as a method of input What was this? Before the Gameboy Camera?
First console with SPDIF port for audio (ps2)
First console with HDMI out (PS3)
First console with integrated blu-ray
First console to allow game patching (PS2 network adapter based games required a hard disk and updates/patches for said games were installed there) Nope, Dreamcast did this first.
There are more i'm sure, just as there are for Nintendo but you get the point.

Oh you're being super technical, and still wrong.
1. Radofin and Atari are Joysticks, not Analog sticks. Similar, but different. Nintendo introduced Analog sticks
2. NES Power glove beats the Sega Activator
3. That Atari Paddle is not a shoulder button. It's like a thumb button.
4. 3D Gaming - That's not a gaming platform, and more of a tech demo. 3D screens have been around in Japan for a while, but never on a dedicated gaming system. I never said Nintendo invented 3D, just was first to implement it in games (and if we go super technical, Virtual Boy is 3D and that's 1995)
As for everything else, all you managed to name for Sony/Ms was that they were the first to have various ports. LOL That means nothing for gaming.
