    That’s how tariff pricing always works. Doesn’t matter if the tariff pricing affects them or not, they’ll raise prices as much as they can.

      Video game console prices didn’t rise because Brazil has high tariffs on electronics.

          How does amount of units sold in one country that decided to enact tariffs relates to prices of products sold between other sovereign countries? I would like to emphasise that world doesn’t revolve around the US and that US citizens democratically made it clear that they are no longer interested in attempting to make it so.

            I’m not from the USA and neither is Nintendo but I’m sure it’s one of their biggest markets.

            Reduced sales will hurt. Nintendo has enough cash to eat the cost but that sets a bad precedent.
