The thing that really matter isn't who is the first to brought something but the first that brought it to the masses.
For example Nintendo DS isn't the first handheld with touch screen.
BTW tiit control was implemented even on GBC in 2000 with special chip into the cartridge of Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble .

So don't you think it's lame to call Nintendo innovative for such things?

I am not saying they're not innovative, but they're definitely not as innovative as many people claim.

There have been various controllers that base their functions in pointing, tilting, acceleration. So the function(s) themselves are nothing new.
In Wiis case, what's new, is how the functions are used. So far all of the motion controllers have been mostly designed only for a specialized function, such as electronic drumsticks. Or the gyroscope in M$:s PC controller was designed flight games in mind, while Wiis controls have been designed to capture the players natural movements for multiple purposes, instead of performing a specialized function or to "add a flavor" for certain games.

@Zones: I'm not quite sure about what you mean, but inventing a tech isn't necessarily as innovative as (new) uses for it. Again, it's not about "what", but about "how".

That starts horrible, but ends with the funny

"Using the power glove you can comfortably use real nunchucks, but they have no control over game play."

 

It's a pretty good comparison.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
