It was the greatest tragedy that could possibly befall our household, at least according to my 15- and 12-year-old sons: Their plan to pool their savings and preorder the eagerly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 game console was foiled by the Trump administration.

However, Bloomberg reports that Nintendo assembles roughly a third of Switch 2 units in Vietnam, now only facing a 10% tariff, not the 46% it would have had if the pause had not happened.

Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser said the Switch 2's $450 price didn't factor in tariffs and the company is "actively assessing" the impact.
