Shouldn't it say after the cancellation period ends, not before? Are these people literate?

  No. It’s correct as written. The point of this phrasing is to establish a waiver of the cancellation period for distance selling. The reason for the UK and EUs 14 day cancellation period for distance selling is to give a proper opportunity to inspect the goods and ensure they are fit for purpose. There is a waiver that vendors can require customers to accept for various types of purchase, such as digital purchases, on the grounds that there’s no need for the goods to be inspected, or that “inspecting” the goods is so indistinguishable from “using the goods” that the 14 day period makes no sense. Here, Nintendo are saying “our obligations under this contract are being met immediately, not after you’ve had 14 days to inspect and accept the goods”.
