None of that is going to customers who overpaid, is it?

I didn't overpay (because not living in the US) so take what I write with grain of salt but at this point I'm just happy the US gets their ass whooped. Yeah, it sucks for the people living there, but it's necessary.

Nintendo games on the Switch 2 are generally $20 higher than their Switch 1 counterparts.
