Nintendo is doing exactly that (pulling games from stores, letting them die). Now that they have more invasive DRM in their latest console, they might even take a more active approach like Ubisoft wegen it comes to live service games. Let's just "sunset" Mario kart world live service and brick it in a couple of years?

What kind of aggressive DRM? Wouldn't the same kind of hack as usual work? As in, hack the hardware, every game becomes playable?
