I remember hearing from many people, “I wasn’t going to buy it, but it’s only available for a limited period, don’t want to miss out on it”.
I voted with my wallet, and didn’t buy it. I lost the vote though, since it sold pretty well.
Which explains why they did it. They created some hype, and earned some money, and still kept it for making some quick money by remaster / re-release when needed.
I bought it when it came out even though I couldn’t reasonably afford it, because at the time my stupid teen-aged self wanted to collect every Nintendo published game on the Switch, and thought the game was going to be sold out if I didn’t get it. I was well aware it was scummy of Nintendo at the time, but I bought it because I was sure they wouldn’t do it again. I even got the limited time Fire Emblem English translation and still haven’t touched it yet.
