Hyphlosion said free updates are good. You essentially made the claim that N screwed up the games on S1, and are now making us pay for a new product for them to "fix" it. Do you not see the gap in that thinking? The only area that logic partly makes sense is in context of games that ran poorly on S1 (as in an inconsistent FPS). With those games, the "Sorry we f'd up the game on S1, but if you spend more on a new console, we promise we fixed it" argument could make sense. But Hyphlosion isn't talking about updates that stabilise the games FPS, they're talking about updates that brought the FPS cap to something S1 wasn't capable of, and to resolutions it couldn't display.

That's not N charging you to "Fix" a broken game, because the game wasn't capable of running that well on S1 anyway. There're games on S1 that run a near perfect 30fps, that can't hit 60fps even if uncapped. Those games, if updated on S2 to support higher FPS, could run at 60fps (or more)

If that's free, that's not N being greedy by releasing a broken game, then making you buy a new system to fix it - it's N taking advantage of new hardware to make the game run far better than was possible on S1. I'm not arguing N isn't greedy, I'm arguing this is not an example of them being greedy. The real example of greediness, is them saying: "Hey, we're gonna give free updates to these games. But those games are more popular (Zelda), so we've GOTTA charge them for it with upgrade packs. We'll make SO MUCH MORE MONEY THAT WAY!! 🤑" That's the only reason N is being selective about which games to charge upgrades for, and which not to.

Personally, I think the reason they aren't adding free res & FPS updates for Mario Party Jamboree and Kirby Forgotten Land, is that they were already developing DLC content for said games (Jamboree TV & Star-Crossed Worlds) way before S2 was revealed. They realised they can make more if they choose to lock the free res & FPS updates behind purchases of DLC packs. And doing so would mean making a "Nintendo Switch 2 Edition". People will accept, because they'd think the extra content makes it worth the price, and those who complain won't have a loud enough voice for it to actually hinder them profiting from it. That's what's greedy here.
