I personally thought the hybrid console was enough innovation and it didn't need the motion technology or the HD rumble tech, but I'm not going to criticize it before I've experienced it myself. $250 would have been the ideal price, I hope they can cut it soon. I'll buy it anyway as I don't really care about the extra $50, but a lot of consumers probably do, at least I think so. 

If I get a new Metroid Prime game that controls as well (or likely better) as Prime 3 you won't hear me complaining about the motion controls though. :) 

In fact, I'm glad the gyro controls return as I hate playing shooters with twin stick aiming. I love the hybrid control method that is provided with Splatoon. It should become an industry standard imo. 

Nothing about the Switch is innovative, all they did was take a handheld and give it a dock to plug into the TV. Not sure how that's innovative. The Wii was real innovation.

And how many consoles do you know that can do that and provide a power boost when it's docked? How many of those have detachable controllers, motion control and HD rumble? Nintendo is the first mainstream console to do all of that. It's a pretty unique console and it definitely stands out compared to XBONE and PS4, for better or worse.
