This is really the most acceptable answer. I know there are those of you that grew up with PSX or PS2 so that era is everything to you but when you talk importance it has to be NES. Without Nintendo this industry doesn't exist anymore. Atari would be runner up since they were more like pioneers but then they nearly killed it all.

In its current form, no. But that's not to say another competitor wouldn't have stepped up. 

It's weird to think about how many consoles changed the way we play games. I wouldn't be surprised if the PC market ended up being massive while consoles turned into a niche.
