I don't wish to argue about the size of gaming because we'll never know what it could have been, but without someone pointing out why computer game makers that were making profits would all suddenly disappear then there's no logical reason that the statement given is true. |
Well yeah Computer Games would exist. There is a very good chance home consoles would of died out though. Which is what i imagine most people mean by "Video Games".
Usually to the common person "Video games" and "Computer Games" mean to different things. Or at least did until recently when the differences between computers and consoles have become more blurred.
So back then the NES did save video games because "Computer Games" were a different thing all together.
