We would have Sega, Sony, and Microsoft by now but it's not known which one would've came out on top of each other ...

Handhelds specialized for gaming wouldn't have been made until much later and also wouldn't be very mainstream until later on ...

 


It would suck and probably not be the same. And no. We would NOT have Sony because they joined the industry in partnership with Nintendo. The PlayStation was a joint project and an add-on for the Super Nintendo. Which Nintendo abandoned because it was not "good nor powerful enough" to fit their visions. They dropped it and Sony finished it. Huge mistake on Nintendo's part. Could you imagine a world where Nintendo and Sony were still together today? Crazy!


As for Microsoft. The MSX may have done a bit better and been successful... maybe not but PC gaming would have still evolved. Sega would probably still try, but may have backed out. Then again would Sega have made the Master System if it wasn't for the NES?
