Nintendo is a public company. They are sort of supposed to look out for the shareholder, you know?
Many of their new games are still good.
And, of course, there's plenty of competition in both hardware capable of running games and in games themselves, so it's not like Nintendo has a monopoly. (And it's pretty well known up-front to customers that Nintendo likes to keep a tight grip. So it's not like people don't know what's coming.)
In fact, that is exactly what Nintendo is doing and what the fine article is about. Bricking a device is an effective way of prying it from the customers' hands.
Many ppl like old Nintendo Games and Nintendo refuses to allow running those old games on switch thats when hacking comes in and makes it possible.
Nintendo is just greedy.

On the other hand Nintendo never pried the NES, SNES, original gameboy and gameboy advances and N64 from its customers hands.
