Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa Says They Are Ready to Adapt Switch 2 Prices in the U.S. Amid Tariffs Worries

Nintendo fans have been wondering a lot about the Switch 2’s release date and price, especially in the U.S. With the current trade situation, there’s a worry that the price could be higher for us due to tariffs on Chinese products. As you might know, Nintendo makes a lot of its products in China, and that’s where things get tricky.

President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Chinese goods have caused concern among gamers. These tariffs could raise the cost of products coming into the U.S., and the Switch 2 might be affected.

But Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa has addressed these worries. In a recent meeting with investors, he explained that the Switch is made in more than just China. In fact, Nintendo also produces their consoles in places like Vietnam and Cambodia.

Furukawa also made it clear that Nintendo has been preparing for things like this. They’ve put a system in place to deal with geopolitical risks, meaning they’re ready for any changes in tariffs or trade relations.

Even if the tariffs do go up, he believes the effect on their performance this year will be minimal. However, Nintendo will still keep an eye on the situation and make adjustments if needed.

It seems like Switch 2’s price might not be impacted as much as we thought, but it’s still something Nintendo will keep track of. Fans in the U.S. should keep watching the situation as things develop, but for now, there’s no need to panic. Furukawa’s confident that the company can handle these changes smoothly.
