Nintendo fans gathered at an event near Tokyo on Saturday to get an exclusive preview of the much-anticipated Switch 2, ahead of its official release. While excitement was high, some attendees expressed concerns about the potential impact of tariffs on the console’s price.

Hidenori Tanaka, a 55-year-old real estate company employee, voiced his worries, noting, “Since Mr. Trump became president, tariffs have gone up, so I am concerned about a price hike not just for the game console but for accessories too.”

With global economic factors and trade tensions in mind, Nintendo’s fans are closely watching the upcoming release, hoping that the price of the new Switch 2 will remain competitive despite these concerns.
