Okay, picture this: A big hullabaloo between Nintendo and Amazon. You’d think, “Eh, why should I care?” But here’s the scoop. So, apparently, Nintendo’s like, “Hey, why are our games cheaper on Amazon?” Some sneaky third-party sellers were grabbing stuff from Southeast Asia and selling it cheaper in the U.S. Or so they say. And boom! Suddenly, Nintendo’s goodies vanish from Amazon U.S. Pretty wild, huh?
Amazon’s response was kinda like, “Oops, our bad. How about we slap some fancy authenticity labels on your stuff?” But Nintendo wasn’t having it. At least, that’s what Bloomberg said. Both big shots—Nintendo and Amazon—are all like, “Nah, that’s not how it went down.” Nintendo’s basically tight-lipped, “No such fact. We don’t kiss and tell.” And Amazon’s trying to smooth things over, insisting they have loads of Nintendo stuff for the fans.
Yet, if you hop onto Amazon.com, no dice on the Switch 2. Bizarre, right? Meanwhile, folks in Canada and the UK are all like, “Switch 2? Yeah, we got it right here!”
Adding to the chaos, reports say a few Nintendo games, like some Donkey Kong thing, are creeping back onto Amazon U.S. But the actual console? Nowhere in sight. It’s kind of like trying to find a unicorn in a haystack.
Despite all this drama, Nintendo laughs all the way to the bank, smashing sales records like they’re going out of style. I guess at the end of the day, gossip’s just a side dish to them making mad sales. Who knew, right?
