without vs weren't of

I have the following two sentences:
The gaming industry wouldn't be as it is today without Nintendo and
The gaming industry wouldn't be as it is today weren't of Nintendo. Can I replace "weren't of" with "without" ? Will the meaning remain the same ?

'... ' is meaningless. Your first sentence, with a full stop after 'Nintendo', is fine.
