At some point, getting Nintendo would be a career moment and I honestly believe a good move for both companies. It’s just taking a long time for Nintendo to see that their future exists off of their own hardware. A long time… :-)

    That one’s on car manufacturers. Anyone that licenses real cars deals with the same nonsense. Those games in particular are not built to be sold forever, perhaps because car manufacturers only want you to think about the new models. It’s also probably a factor in why the upcoming Forza is built as a “live service” that will keep getting updated, though I suspect that means old cars get removed in favor of their new models somehow.
