It's practices like this that just encourage piracy. At some point Nintendo will close those servers, and in all likelihood game preservationists and fans will be the ones to keep things going. Kinda defeats the purpose of having a physical copy of a game. Especially annoying when they opt for digital downloads for a game like FFX-2 - surely both those games could fit onto a nintendo switch cartridge (they go up to 64GB) - but I guess it's cheaper for them to use a smaller volume card...
