- 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. |
Ill give you NES but Wii? Please people give that thing way too much credit. THe Cell phone gaming and tablets would have happened if WIi didnt exist and gaming would have expanded that way regardless. I mean if we are being honest the WIi at the end really had no lasting impact. Motion gaming is damn near all but dead. Hell PS2 is still the highest selling console and that was a gen prior so i dont know how one could say gaming was stagnant
