False scarcity is intended to keep something hard to get so as to build demand, resulting in greater sales in the long term (or so the theory goes). But if you straight up stop producing something that is in demand that's not false scarcity, that's just throwing away money. It makes no sense at all.
Now they can go "you can buy all these retro games and more...on the switch!"
Alternatively its nintendo being nintendo and not having a clue. Both are equally likely.
