Nintendo is delaying US Switch 2 pre-orders in response to the sweeping
tariffs announced by President Donald Trump earlier this week, reports
Polygon. As of Nintendo's announcement of the console on Wednesday, pre-
orders in the United States were scheduled to open on April 9. They're now
delayed indefinitely.

"Pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 in the US will not start April 9, 2025 in
order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market
conditions," the company told Polygon. "Nintendo will update timing at a
later date. The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged."

Nintendo did not immediately respond to Engadget's comment request.
