I wish both the government and Nintendo could lose this case

Thanks for sharing this! Here’s a bit from the article:
Nintendo of America is suing the US government over President Trump’s tariffs and is demanding a “prompt refund, with interest” of any duties that it has paid, according to a complaint filed in the US Court of International Trade, as reported previously by Aftermath.
The Supreme Court ruled last month that Trump’s use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to levy “reciprocal” tariffs was illegal, without specifying how any refunds might work.
If someone had told me one of the first businesses to legally fight back against the tariffs was going to be Nintendo, I wouldn’t have believed you.
Way to go, Nintendo!

Here is the thing Trump had the right to block foreign products here. We do it with a lot of Chinese electronics and cars. So there is a possibility that he just bans Nintendo products here. This was a bold move from Nintendo with how reactionary the man is

To be honest….I’m pretty okay with this. As litigiously happy as Nintendo is they usually aren’t frivolous when it comes to them either.
