Nintendo pulls Switch 2 pre-orders in US over Trump tariffs

  • Nintendo suspended pre-orders for the Switch 2 in the U.S. Due to uncertainty over tariffs imposed by the Trump administration, but the launch date of June 5, 2025, remains unchanged.
  • The Nintendo Switch 2 will be priced at around USD 449.99, significantly higher than the original Switch's 2017 launch price of $300.
  • The tariffs imposed are part of Trump's reciprocal tariffs policy, affecting imports from Vietnam and Cambodia, where Nintendo sources more than half of its hardware.
  • Nintendo stated it would provide updated pre-order information later, as it assesses the impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions.
