So what innovation are you talking about?

Without Sony, Last Guardian would have been cancelled. There wouldn't be a Heavy Rain or Until Dawn. We would never have gotten a sequel to Gravity Rush; nor a Knack 2. There wouldn't be many niche games like Pupeteer which probably bring some enjoyment to some of us. 

 

There is VR, which Sony is the marketleader. Sony didn't innovate, but it is the driving force behind higher VR development and consumer adoption. Many people will get to play the new RE7 in VR, because of Sony. 

 

Sony is also driving game streaming with PSNOW. 

 

Sony is also the first one to bring 4K gaming to console gamers at an affordable price, a year earlier than anyone. 

 

All reasons for Sony to be the market leader, and enough said. 

None of those games are innovative or known for setting the standard. VR is still niche and almost everyone is doing it. PS4 Pro is not capable of actual 4K gaming and that's not innovation anyway, that's just making a more powerful console. Consoles have been getting more powerful since decades. Heck, Nintendo even inserted special chips into their cartridges to boost the power of the SNES. That was absolutely brilliant of them and gave them the edge over their competitors. It didn't require the purchase of additional devices or new consoles. Also, streaming has been done long before Sony, even with games. 

And since when is getting a sequel to Knack a good thing, lol?
