    *in the USA

    Edit: apparently they’ve later come out and said Canada will be included. I dunno. I’ve stopped following.

      I would never had imagined that in my lifetime I’d see gringos reverse-smuggling game consoles from Mexico. I guess you could smuggle them from Canada too, but Mexico has always smuggled merch from USA. We even have a term for it: “fayuca”.

      The lucky ones that live near the border can cross, shop switches 2 at non-orange prices, open them and smuggle the back as personal devices.

        Oh, you think Canadians aren’t going to get in on tariff evasion? They 100% will.

        The tremendous irony is America was founded to evade massive tariffs, sorta… and now we’re doing it to our self.

        You’re not wrong. But OP just wrote what the title said and the article quickly clarifies its for the US.
