Nintendo revived the industry
Sega provided competition and stabilized it
Sony broadened it
Microsoft fills Segas role now, down to the online play you give MS credit for. Sega actually had their own pay to play online network long before XBL

Sega introduced Online, but MS is who popularized it and for the matters of how it affects us today, that's all that matters.

No they didn't. Atari 2600 was online. Famicom was Online. Xband made Genesis and SNES online and even could play Street Fighter II online with SNES and Genesis and Capcom and other publishers supported it. Nintendo and SEGA even had DLC in the 80's and 90's. With Stuff like Skies of Arcadia,BS Zelda Mario Paint N64 and some Famicom Disc games had it. Like Excitebike
