Nintendo like many companies are working on complying with EU laws, among them is the upcoming requirement for replaceable batteries.

Nintendo published their plans for compliance: https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Corporate/Consumer-Information/Compliance-with-EU-Directives-and-Regulations/Compliance-with-EU-Directives-and-Regulations-625942.html

And if I parsed this correctly it seems like they're going to make a separate version only for Europe. Almost impressive how much of an asshole Nintendo can be.

Claiming that a replaceable battery is impossible is one thing. But making a model with a replaceable battery, then only making it available in Europe is extra asshole-y
