Theres nothing morally wrong about copying and rehashing a creative idea. I'm just saying those other companies suck at creativity if all they can do is wait for Nintendo to come up with something quite consistently. In essence, the Xbox 360 controller is essentially a wireless Xbox controller which is a highly ergonomic controller, but reminiscent of PC controllers that existed ahead of it. And the PS3 controller is a PS2 controller, which is a dual shock PSX controller, which was somewhat of a N64/SNES hybrid rip. I fail to see their creativity. The Gamecube controller wasn't anything special either, but at least it was based off of Nintendo's own property.
I wouldn't be too worried about the Revolution's remote's face layout at this point. It still has to undergo some change, and I'm sure that developers will ask for more buttons, and Nintendo will eventually see that they will reposition and add buttons to make it better.
Additionally, the conventional controller cradle that Nintendo has spoken will definitely have alot of face buttons to deal with old Nintendo games, and multiconsole games.
