It's the typical end-of-generation lull right now, but even with that, the brand is broadly, wildly popular. The Switch is approaching the PS2's sales record. Throw in all the money from MTX now and it's surely the most profitable venture ever in traditional video games.

That's precisely why Nintendo can afford to burn up goodwill with trash like this move.
