The reality is that Nintendo removed your ability to buy those old games for $10, because they’d rather rent you those games forever on their subscription service. If they were on Steam for $10, I’d have bought those old ROMs.

Didn’t tears of the kingdom got pirated in like 1 week within release? That must have affected sales in some degree

Lots of theoreticals and assumptions. Not seeing any evidence here.
I also find it laughable that you want to compare Nintendo to some scrappy artist. Piracy does not impact everyone the same way.

Did I say that? I did not. I said the game was pirated in 1 week which it definitely happened unless everyone who emulated it was using it legally.
