Maybe he means that if Nintendo won then we might not have a "big three" now.

He refers to the "expansion" of the industry, but I hardly think an N64 victory using CDs would have somehow crippled the growth of the industry. Third parties would still have made the games they wanted to make, they just may not necessarily have been on the same platforms.

Sony not dominating the 5th gen would've stunted the growth of the industry IMO. They took gaming to a whole 'nother level Nintendo wouldn't have IMO.
