FWIW: I read this title as “they are just refunding everyone that bought it across the board with no action required from purchasers” which is far more shocking than the article.
The article: A few people said they didn’t like it, thought the quality was worse, asked for a refund and got it. So, if you own it and agree, give that a shot.
And mind you despite what people love to say, if you actually talk to Nintendo Support, refunds for digital purchases are entirely normal.
They always offered them right away for me, even when I explicitly didn’t want one. Hell they offered to refund me a hardware purchase without me asking about it, just as an option in case I don’t want it any longer.
The upgrade is noticeable, but meh. They shouldn’t be charging for it
