I think a lot of us don't understand the meaning of "competition"

nintendo tried to inovate with wii u gamepad, xbo with cloud, lots ofmandatory kinect.
but no one wants inovation, they want the basic. a conventional controler, online...

Innovation doesn't have to be new features. The fact that Sony didn't push gimmicks on it's customers in this generation cause they learned what the customer wanted most, and in that way they innovated the industry.

I think that's more iteration than it is innovation.

Seeing as that almost every console in the last two generations was trying to tout other features instead of just core gaming (DVD! motion controls! blu-ray! kinect!), making a core game console with little focus on anything else is, in many ways, innovation for modern gaming.
