Do you mind games companies copying each other's ideas?

i hate it cause sony and ms are copying everything they can from nintendo from motion sensing, miis to rumoured channels and balance board rip off and still claiming that they don't compete with wii(basically because they would look bad if we compare sales of each console).

Sony copied Microsoft's online, still are. Nintendo's still trying to catch Microsoft in that arena as well (though they are not trying as hard).

And everyone copied Sony's Blu-Ray.

Wait what?

 

 I thought companies only copied successful things?
