There are not many companies in the world that could handle the warehouses / capital required to store all of that. |
The thing also to point out is that Nintendo doesn't have their own manufacturing lines. They have to pay for manufacturing lines with as much orders as they can order. Its not a simple snap of the finger as its not as accessible when needed. That's what they have been facing with Switch manufacturing, especially since there is a year round shortage of the NAND memory chip.
I don't know how many would want this (though having Star Fox 2 and Yoshi's Island would entice customers who want to play these games), given most of the games are either emulated in other avenues or they have the original console and all.
