nintendo games have much higher replay value than the others you mentioned. they are mostly off line. they have different mechanics beyond graphics. people will buy them on multiple consoles happily. they are not rotting, these are active revenue streams. nintendo isn’t afraid of mods, they would rather just sell you mario maker and create an experience. quake and cod are mostly online, and there’s no community anymore. there’s over 30 cod games, no scarcity on the experience since they’re so similar. the one mostly offline game series you mentioned, halo, is closed source and still sold today. it is far less likely quake 3 is going to be bought and played today vs mario64. those games are not active revenue streams and don’t have a good path to become one again
