I think most of the growth from 1985-1995 can be attributed to Nintendo. While there WERE very good computer games, the MASS market (where most of the money is) grew mostly because of the NES and SNES. The mass market also grew because of Sega, but less so.
Most of the Mass Market growth from 1995-2005 can be attributed to Sony, and now it looks like it is back to Nintendo (2006-2007).

I don't really think you can say any one company "saved" gaming but certainly Nintendo was responsible for most of the profits and growth from 1985-1995.
