Is Trump’s Tariff War Making the Nintendo Switch 2 More Expensive?
Manage episode 480154950 series 3653217
In this bonus episode of The Lonely Liberal, I dive into a very serious question that has been occupying too much headspace for me: Are Trump’s new China tariffs really driving up the price of the Nintendo Switch 2?
From console hardware and accessories to global supply chains, currency shifts, and manufacturing costs, we break down what’s really behind Nintendo’s surprisingly high price tags — and whether political trade wars are the main culprit or just one piece of the puzzle.
If you love video games, global economics, or just want to understand how political decisions ripple all the way down to your next gaming console, this one’s for you.
