Without Nintendo, the US still exists and other players in the industry would have taken that part of the market in its place. What people with stance like yours suggest is that the US could never possibly get a product of interest from any other console maker ever, that the console market is dead and gone for good no matter what without Nintendo, regardless of how it is doing anywhere else in the world.

That’s a myopic stance, one that disregards way too many factors and contributors to make it possible to be taken seriously.

it's speculation. , dreadful sales of other players say otherwise.

Its negations and revisionism. bad Revisionism based on nothing, against the other player's numbers and market situation. Well against the history say.

History talks about a crash in the US market caused by market saturation and the world just coming out of its worst recession since WWII. It doesn’t talk about the entire industry being dead.

The ones being revisionists are those who talk about the industry getting saved. The industry wasn’t dying. It was barely just getting started. 

Suggesting the home console industry would never have been a thing in the US if not for the NES despite steadily flourishing basically everywhere else in the world is utterly idiotic.
