Why have the switch 2 accessories hiked up in price (in North America)?

I've heard that the accessories have gotten up in price for American customers. For me, it has have stayed the same in my country but USA is being ripped off badly:

Japan

Pro Controller: ¥9,980 ($70.10)
Joy Con 2 (L/R) Pair: ¥9,980 ($70.10)
Joy Con 2 (L/R) Strap: ¥1,980 ($13.90)
Joy Con 2 Charging Grip: ¥3,980 ($27.95)
Joy Con 2 Wheel Set: ¥2,480 ($17.45)
Switch 2 Dock Set: ¥14,980 ($105.25)
Switch 2 Camera: ¥5,980 ($42.00)
Case & Screen Protector: ¥2,980 ($20.95)
All in One Carrying Case: ¥9,980 ($70.10)
AC Adapter: ¥3,980 ($27.95)
Micro SD Card (256GB - Express): ¥6,980 ($49.00)

10% CT is included with the price. So if you were about to add up the bundle plus all the accessories, that sums up to ¥120,280 ($844.70), meanwhile in America:

United States

Pro Controller: $79.99, now $84.99
Joy Con 2 (L/R) Pair: $89.99, now $94.99
Joy Con 2 (L/R) Strap: $12.99, now $13.99
Joy Con 2 Charging Grip: $34.99, now $39.99
Joy Con 2 Wheel Set: $19.99, now $24.99
Switch 2 Dock Set: $109.99, now $119.99
Switch 2 Camera: $49.99, now $54.99
Case & Screen Protector: $34.99, now $39.99
All in One Carrying Case: $79.99, now $84.99
AC Adapter: $29.99, now $34.99
Micro SD Card (256GB - Express): $59.99

If you add everything including the $499.99 Switch 2 Bundle, that totals up to around $1,093.89 (without sales tax, what more with that?), is that overpriced?
