You probably could really help gaming by setting up an incubator fund to help indie developers.

Other ways a little bit of money could go a long way is by contributing to open source development of projects like Godot.

Finally, contribute to games preservation. This could take a couple of different forms, but just a fund to back something like the Free Software Foundation or Archive.org, maybe to set up an Abandonware project.

The guy is a mega-billionaire. He could accomplish some very positive gamer related things for a fraction of a fraction of a percent of his wealth.
