The myth that Nintendo saved gaming, and we should be grateful to them for it. What a load of shit that is. |
Nintendo has saved gaming twice though:
- NES: due to the seal of quality, it helped prevent another gaming crash. Also made gaming more mainstream and its games are the basis of gaming today. Super Mario Bros. was loads more advanced than Pitfall, Zelda was entirely new pretty much, etc. etc.
- Wii: Gaming was becoming stagnant, and gamers were getting stereotyped hard. Wii opened it up to a whole new audience and made gaming truly mainstream. Continues today with smartphones now.

PC gaming was still doing fine, NES didn't save anything there.
The Wii never did anything to save gaming, the PS2 made gaming mainstream long before the Wii did.

NES saved gaming in the US....
