It almost single handedly saved the US video game market and by extension parts of the world.

It also ended the era of gaming computers in Europe, as a game the are obviously others I prefer like BOTW but SMB did something on a level no other launch title can touch as it was also the game that changed up how developers designed their games.

Not really - ZX and C64 were kings of gaming in Europe in 80s, NES did start to seriously chip away that market, but I'd say that SEGA Mega Drive and SNES were what brought computer gaming to its knees in late 80s/early 90s...at least until PCs regained some of that lost ground later on.
