Now, had there been literally no releases beyond this, then the systems would’ve all quickly faded out

Yeah to be clear, I meant it as "the presence of this one game could change which console wins", not "if the console only had this game and nothing else" haha

ah okay that makes more sense lol. Thank you for the clarification. I think BotW and Wii Sports definitely serve as strong examples to this question, single-handily sending Nintendo from a dying brand to a cultural sensation overnight.
