(Wikipedia excerpt below.)

The video game crash of 1983, also known as Atari shock in Japan,[1] was a massive recession of the video game industry that occurred from 1983 to 1985. Revenues had peaked at around $3.2 billion in 1983,[2] then fell to around $100 million by 1985 (a drop of almost 97 percent). The crash was a serious event that brought an end to what is considered the second generation of console video gaming in North America.

The crash almost destroyed the then-fledgling industry and led to the bankruptcy of several companies producing home computers and video game consoles in the region, including the fastest-growing U.S. company in history at that point, Atari.[3] It lasted about two years, and many business analysts of the time expressed doubts about the long-term viability of video game consoles. The video-game industry was revitalized a few years later mostly due to the widespread success of the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES).
(End excerpt.)

So for those who hate Nintendo, just remember; without them, video gaming wouldn't exist.

Without IBM there would be no computers. Does this mean we would like IBM? No.

No. Without Nintendo another company (Like Sega) would come along and bring it back.

Yes we do, Video Games would come back eventually but it would take longer and probably not be done as good

Nintendo didn't save anything, during the videogame crash, PC gaming was still doing very well. The only thing Nintendo did was influence the game industry.
