President Donald Trump’s 90-day tariff pause gives Nintendo (NTDOY) time to prep the Switch 2’s US launch on June 5 and lifts pricing pressure, Bloomberg’s Vlad Savov, Takashi Mochizuki, and Andy Lin report. Nintendo can focus on ramping up shipments of the Switch 2 to the U.S. market, which accounts for more than a third of its sales, and stock up units over the next three months, according to the report. As long as the tariffs remain at 10%, Bloomberg says the company can maintain its $450 price point for the Switch 2, rather than raising it by $50-$100.
