but if it wasn't for Nintendo, video game consoles would have been a fad that died in the early 80s.
The NES standardized the console, so it's by far the most influential in my eyes. The OG PlayStation is the only other system that comes close in terms of influence, but the OG PlayStation was just a Super Super Nintendo. Sony was just iterating on the standard already set by Nintendo.
