What games popularized certain mechanics?

I was trying to think of which games created certain mechanics that became popular and copied by future games in the industry.

The most famous one that comes to my mind is Assassin’s Creed, with the tower climbing for map information.

If not GoldenEye, then I believe Perfect Dark would let you plug in two controllers for a dual analog control scheme.

Goldeneye did allow this. Crazy. Hard to use other buttons though.
