Oh right - the journalist screwed it up. I just got angry about Nintendo’s response to the “American Import Taxes” I ended up grumbling about that. Sony did the same thing, so console gaming is becoming more ethically restrictive. :(

Well, Nintendo increased the sale price on NS2 in Europe and Australia to compensate for the tariffs in the US, so they could keep the end-user price down for US consumers even with tariffs. This effectively shifted the cost of the tariffs to European and Australian consumers, which is why I have sworn off Nintendo for good.
