I agree to this. I think tariff refunds should have gone to the taxpayers.
Nintendo was the taxpayer in this situation. They paid the tarrif and increased prices due to tarrifs and other economic events (AI cost increases im sure).
Americans are being such babies about this, we elected Trump (who is known for tarrifs and doing illegal shit) and are now upset that he's screwing things up just like he said he would.
Sure the situation sucks, but until there is mass movement to get rid of the cause, you won't much sympathy from me.
that would be more efficient
