En 1985 el videojuego casi desaparece. Cayó un 97%.
Mario lo salvó. Y ese efecto dominó aún rebota.
Sin ese rebote no hay carrera de GPUs. Sin esa carrera,

Sin esa chispa... no hay ChatGPT. No hay IA.

PlayStation nació porque Nintendo triunfó.

Xbox nació porque PlayStation asustó a Microsoft.
Sin Mario, ni Sony ni
Microsoft entran al juego. Nunca.
