3) Gamecube's memory cards. Instead of releasing a "full" 8MB card, they release a 4mb card that can't handle ports. Why? Cause it costs them a handful or quarters to make, and they can sell it for $15 (which is a HUGE rip off). Why wait til this year to release the 251? So games can have memory that exceed 59 blocks, and people will have to go out and buy another rip off card at a rip off price. In 2003 they could do the same thing (it's not like most sports games on Xbox/Ps2 can fit on a 251 block card anyway).
That's not the only thing... GBA is example of out-dated hardware and ported old games just to put some $$$ in Nintendo's pocket.
