1. NES - Restored gaming after video game crash.
2. Playstation 1 - Bought mature and hardcore games in gaming who were fed up playing kid's games.

Hur? What kind of new mature content did the PS bring that the other 4th and 5th gen consoles didn't have?

Just off the top of my head, Wipeout, Gran Turismo, Resident Evil, Parasite Eve, Vagrant Story, FF7 and of course Metal Gear Solid. You may not want to hear it.. but The PSX really did make a more mature audience get into console gaming... or should I say, continue playing console games.

And to OP, It was the most successgul console ever released. Not the "best console ever released". Hell, in the PS2 generation the XBOX was the "best" console of that generation. 

All fantastic games. No argument there. It's almost criminal how little time I've spent with PS1 games, but what I've played, I've loved. Sega and Nintendo had mature content like that too, though.

Off topic, but have you read the Parasite Eve book? Super weird. I loved it! Remember in the game when Meada talks about his facination with a similar smaller scale incident that took place in Japan? That's what he's referencing.
