Yeah.
But I am guessing it was an idea that emerged out of desperation.
The people who have all the money are boomers who only understand references to other stuff so the idea possibly emerged when Boomers heard of Netflix and someone said that they should turn games into Netflix and since traded companies rely on their public perception (See Tesla not earning a fucking cent in its entire span) well there you go...

We all knew a crash was coming.
Even Nintendo pricing is fucking stupid but they do not sell their consoles at a loss.
