Well, then Wii clearly was innovative, not only sold 100m to a blue ocen but also created the concept than now is gonna be heavily used in VR for years :D Oh and also in Switch, an inminent succes :)

Good old Wii, someday it will remember as what it really was, a visionary console.

...People don't actually believe that Nitendo was the first to do gyroscopic controllers, do they? They have been used in stupidly expensive, highly complicated VR systems that predate the Wii by a decade.  If anything, Nintendo might have been inspired by them. Just check out Viruality for an idea of what I'm talking about.

They succesfully introduce them into the industry and the other big 2 tried to do their own versions to emulate the success, now they are gonna be used in VR, Wii was clearly the pioner in the industry, an obscure and unpolished machine that nobody knew is not the cause of the motion control revolution, is the Wii.
