Nintendo of America announced a 'Customer Appreciation Sale' offering 30% off games and services, explicitly citing tariff-related refunds as partly funding the promotion. The announcement drew criticism because Nintendo is currently facing a class action lawsuit accusing it of not passing tariff refunds directly back to customers who paid higher, tariff-inflated prices. Critics argue the sale is a public-relations move that sidesteps directly compensating affected customers, keeping the controversy over Nintendo's tariff-related pricing practices in the spotlight.
