U do realize NES was a gimmick controller, right? Look up the Coleco Vision, Intellivision, Atari 5200 controller, that's what a standard controller looked like pre-NES.

NES also had the Zapper & R.O.B., gimmick controllers are part of Nintendo's roots.

The D-pad wasn't a gimmick, it was an innovation.  They didn't even want to use it at first, they wanted a traditional joystick, but found the D-pad to be a superior option.  

R.O.B. was a gimmick but it was barely a factor (thought I do remember wondering "WHERE THE HELL IS MY ROBOT" when I got my NES).  The light-gun was also a gimmick, and more of a factor, but it became less of a factor as time went on.  

The big difference is that the NES did not depend on a gimmick the way the Wii U and Wii depended on gimmicks.

NES was absolutely dependant on gimmicks, the only reason most retailers accepted it in the US was because it was marketed as a toy and was bundled with R.O.B.
