Disney is the reason copyrights last as long as they do but you'll note that they didn't bother trying to extend it this time with Steamboat Willie.
Ask anyone under 18 what franchise they think of when they hear "Disney" and it almost definitely won't be any of the Disney characters we grew up with. Nintendo has been actively diversifying their IP for decades knowing that eventually they'll lose the classics
