Nintendo's profit doubled and the hero was... a tariff refund

Switch 2 sold 3.82 million in April to June, down 34% from launch quarter. But operating profit went up about 150%! And part of the reason is "the refund of IEEPA tariffs in the US".

So the real Nintendo MVP this quarter is not Mario, not Zelda, not Kirby. It's a customs office. I want an amiibo of this.

Good for them anyway. Digital sales also up 90%, so maybe many people buy from the eShop now. 😄
