A union is a parasitic entity grafted onto an existing corporation, this is how it's always been. Aside from like the great depression, the majority of unions were because of grifters wanting to leech instead of raise working conditions.
In this case Nintendo has also been giving more attention to "diversity" so they are pushing for even more money and power.
I do think unions COULD be a fix if a corporation becomes huge and a monopoly, like Walmart or Amazon or whatever, but trying to unionize in a white collar industry like game development when there's literally hundreds of thousands of people willing to line up and take your place is such a stupid fucking idea. The churn is high, but it also keeps faces fresh.
With unionization this means shit workers will forever be stuck in a corporation and the corporation would not be able to get rid of them.
The only thing that really affects monopolies is when the government steps in and breaks them apart, and they only do that when they want to gain greater influence in that area. The government is a monopoly on deadly force after all.
anyone notice this pattern happens repeatedly.

Yeah, it's a catch-22 because governments that break monopolies apart are usually the ones RESPONSIBLE for creating it (hi Section 230).
