Nintendo will last longer on what is quickly becoming an outdated business model because they sell to a large audience of children. Their older Zelda or Metroid fans are more likely to be bothered by the fact that, for arbitrary business reasons, they're prohibited from running those games at higher frame rates or resolutions. But I'm a tinkerer. If I want to do something my way, and there's a way to do it, I'm going to. Nintendo could monetize me, but they opt not to.
