The question about the success of the NES (that may have revived console gaming) could be quite big (for gaming). Without Nintendo would there be a Japanese influence on gaming at all? Would there be RPGs as we know them? What about the japanese heritage of art? Would there be collectathon elements in games? I guess narrative would be different.
The mixture of the weird, fantastic japanese elements and the "realistic" western elements derived from Hollywood culture make many games different than other cultural phenomenon like movies or litterateur.
(Analysing too deep!)
