List is terrible and is filled with mostly stuff that failed or wasn't original.

NES had a multitap in 1990.

Putting Rumble, existing tech, inside the controller was just a natural next step.  It was not a creative next step.  It was a no duh next step.

Horizontal stands?!!??  Lol.  

Sony isn't innovative but pragmatic which can be an excellent trait.

I owned every Sony hardware and have loved it.  But what drew me to Sony was knowing what I was getting, not innovation.

Disagree  not that i care that much for innovation but they have done plenty of innovative things
