Nintendo Reportedly Has a Stockpile of Over a Million Switch 2 Consoles in the US


Nintendo sent 383,000 units from Vietnam to the US in January and over 700,000 units in February. The shipments are bound to increase as Trump pauses most of his 'reciprocal tariffs.'

Nintendo is also expected to increase shipments as much as possible after Trump hit pause on most of his "reciprocal tariffs" for 90 days. In a Monday CNBC interview, Nintendo of America President Doug Bowser added, "We’ve had some time to build up inventories on a global basis” to meet the anticipated Switch 2 demand. Although the president hit pause on most "reciprocal tariffs," he’s continued to escalate his levies on Chinese imports, which now stands at 125%.
