Nintendo is copying this time (and one of the last to finally do it) - in terms of a handheld device that can play games and hooking up to a TV.
The PSP/PSP Go has a charging dock that you can hook up to your TV and play with a Dualshock 3 controller. Hell it even has home console style games to make it feel like both a portable and home console (ie MGS Peacewalker, GoW, Crisis Core etc..). Hell even the Sega Nomad was able to hook up to the TV i believe, so maybe Sega was the first to do this. You can already do similar to this as well with MS Surface Pro tablets.
I feel like alot of Nintendo fans ignore these innovation from others because they're so in belief that Nintendo is the only one capable of innovating. Yes Nintendo has innovated a shit load of things, but doesn't mean that they've innovated ever single thing in the video game world. The only difference that makes the Switch seem better than others is that because they're the last to do this so they have the better/newer technology to impliment more and newer ideas and features. If Sega's Nomad and the PSP/PSP Go was to be released the same time as the Switch then you better believe it that they'll have similar/new features like the Switch.
Title of the thread should be "Switch finally copies Sony and MS (and Sega)"
That being said, regardless of Nintendo's late arrival to hybrid console I still can't wait to get the Switch. I've always loved that feature when I was playing my PSP Go and I'm excited again with Nintendo.

Who on earth wants to play PSP games on a big screen HD TV? This is NOT the same as the Nintendo Switch (and we don't even know all the information yet, so stop pretending this is all the Switch is). You do realize you could already play GAMEBOY games on the SNES with the Super Game Boy (1994)? So if anything, Nintendo certainly was the first. The idea is just fully realized now, and again, Nintendo is the first that's doing so.
