That's kind of hillarious, how many of the greatest Nintendo titles actually rely on these "innovations".

Super Mario Galaxy? No

Breath of the Wild? No

Mario Kart? No

Pokemon? No

Animal Crossing? No

Fire Emblem? No

Almost every Nintendo game would be perfectly viable on ps4/xbo/pc.

If Nintendo had actually innovated in any meaningful succesful way in the past decade maybe Reggie would have some sort of a point, but regardless he avoided the main question and didn't address what's best for Nintendo itself once. The debate was a joke.

Super Mario Galaxy: Pretty sure you could use motion controls and collect star bits by yourself or with someone else

Breath of the Wild: Pretty sure this is the first original 3D developed Zelda that you can play on the go. In fact, I'm pretty sure that is what Nintendo has been advertising non-stop.

Pokemon: Pretty sure Pokemon has been on handhelds since forever.

Animal Crossing: Pretty sure Animal Crossing is on handhelds

Fire Emblem: Pretty sure Fire Emblem experienced a boom and rejuvination from the brink of death on handhelds

Almost every Nintendo game would be perfectly viable on ps4/xbo/pc: Pretty sure that you omitted Splatoon, a game that despite the whining and complaining about motion controls a majority tout a better experience. Pretty sure many fans who actually played metroid prime trilogy on the wii loved the motion controls.

If Nintendo had actually innovated in any meaningful succesful way in the past decade maybe Reggie would have some sort of a point:

Why stop at a decade, what about since Reggie's time at Nintendo? The don't make new hardware every year. a decade is like 2 generations of hardware, and a decade conviently enough ommits the release of the Wii and DS. Pretty sure the Wii's motion controls set a rubric for a decent chunk of gaming today: Motion in VR headsets, motion controllers for VR. Gyro controllers/ regular controllers with pointer control features.
