I'm sure they're doing this to stop people visiting japan from buying up everything (AS YALL DO) but it sucks for ppl that would have preferred to get the EN version that live in Japan.

was comparing the prices of the US versions of the Switch 2 with the domestic (Japan) versions, and learned a fun fact. you gotta pay more for the multi-lang version in Japan yaaaay 🫠🫠🫠

an extra 20,000 yen is HUGE and CRAZY for just being able to change the language. CRAZYYY
