22 h. ago How Nintendo dodged Trump’s tariffs and saved the Switch 2 release

Fortunate timing and government hesitation allowed the Switch 2 to come out on time, but the headache isn’t overNintendo fans across the US are breathing a sigh of relief as they tear apart the boxes housing their new Nintendo Switch 2 video game consoles. On-again, off-again trade tariffs implemented by Donald Trump, which precipitated pre-order delays from Nintendo, made the 5June release date of the highly coveted hardware feel more like a hope than a certainty.
