Animal Crossing Horipad Turbo (Switch 2) US release? Should I import?

Is it likely that this controller will release in the US eventually? It comes out June 30th in Japan. I did some research on some other horipad turbo switch 2 controllers and a Kirby one released in December in Japan + is coming to the US in July (i saw a listing on Amazon)

Basically I'm wondering if I should just bite the bullet and import this. It's about $54 on amazon japan... but import fees + shipping costs will probably make it cost around double. I know in the US if it releases it will cost about $65, which is much more reasonable.

Hori fans, what do you think? is this likely to come to US markets?

ECMS: Advice Needed

I am considering purchasing a DS lite (on a limited budget) and some games to go with it, and the least expensive shipping option to my location (US) available is ECMS.

I have seen people say that ECMS will not allow shipment of devices containing lithium batteries, but, I was looking at their restricted items for General International Express and do not see batteries listed there, perhaps I am mistaken? Will my order be cancelled if I select this shipping option?

My main concern is that FedEx Lowcost (next cheapest available option) is nearly double the shipping price of ECMS.

Also, will the prepayment fee for FedEx Lowcost and ECMS be the same? Will I have to worry about further unexpected prices besides the increased shipping cost if I have to switch my (planned) shipping carrier from ECMS to FedEx Lowcost?

Any help appreciated, thank you~!
