Without Playstation, would the industry be in another crisis?

Notice how 2 of those involve kids. That's what gaming was before - something for kids.

As for Bill in True Blood, I also notice that you omitted the part where it's actually a grandma who's originally playing the Wii and Bill sees it. Which makes sense as a large part of the Wii audience were casuals including more mature people.

There is also an adult in both those 2 scenes too, and those shows were meant for adults.  Something for everyone (1st scene targets Families, 2nd scene targets Adults, 3rd scene targets Teens)

The Wii made several appearances on True Blood, the episode where Bill plays golf is different than the episode you're talking about where the crazy old lady plays Dead Space.  In this episode Bill plays golf alone, it was just Nintendo being played by a regular adult.

The scenes might be targeting adults but it's still only kids who are playing. As for the Wii, well, it was a casual console so it makes sense that a casual gamer like Bill would play golf with the Wiimote. So, not just a Nintendo - the Wii w/ Wiimote and all, which Hoyt, btw, says that his mom plays because it calms her down. In any case, you further cemented my point if anything,
