Yes its true this happend shortly after the crash of 83 they used it to prevent publishers from overwhelming their systems library with so called shovelware this is what killed the 2600 and the industry at some point.
I like to believe that publishers are buying shelf space to keep their crap on sale so i beleve that the ones who are making games for the core audience need to fight fire with fire. Though that might have sounded kinda stupid or i also think developers need to spread the word thorugh TV advertisment even though the game might be selling well.
