  Why is that every time Nintendo does something cool and creative, all other game makers and console makers has to copy it?

  Publishers are weird like that. They'll do anything if they think they might be able to make money off of it.

  ...at least it's 3D. However, I won't be getting this.

  Yeah, what's up with them wanting to make money? It actually looks nice, but I think I'll pass.

  A person steals an idea every know and then for the reasons of richness is human nature, but everyone stealing all of Nintendo's idea every time is just wrong. Just like in highschool; copy the Asian kid and you will pass all classes.
