The reality is high-qualit games like Mario Odyssey are very expensive to make.

If in some hypothetical future you can't turn a profit because everyone is pirating it, these games will either:

1. stop existing

2. be lower quality

3. follow the steps of free mobile games - full of ads, microtransactions, etc.
