Not really, the crash of 83 was mostly an american thing. In Japan arcades were more popular and in Europe PC gaming was more popular than consoles. The market would've adapted to the more popular forms of gaming and the landscape would have been much more different than today's. Nintendo saved console gaming as a vital part of the gaming sphere, but saying they saved gaming overall it's a bit much.
