Nintendo has prevailed in a nearly two-year-long suit brought by consumer advocacy bodies in Norway and Germany, claiming that Nintendo's practice of prohibiting cancellation of pre-orders was in violation of Norwegian and EU laws.
Norwegian publication Pressfire (https://www.pressfire.no/nyheter/Switch/14976/Nintendo-vant-forbrukerrettsaken-mot-Norge-og-Tyskland) reports the results of the case, saying that a Frankfurt judge dismissed the suit and ordered the plaintiff to pay court costs.
