I not so obvious but similar example of this would be with Nintendo and the Switch. They had always hand their handheld and consoles as separate things but eventually decided to just combine them into a single thing. So instead of double dipping on the hardware and potentially the software sales, it just become a single entity. And to say that has worked out well for them is an understatement. Sold 139 million units and are still taking their time of getting to a successor. They are probably going to take the #1 highest selling games machine of all time and they did it by going against their old business practices.
