Nintendo says consumers are not legally entitled to tariff refunds
Nintendo has requested the dismissal of a class action lawsuit seeking refunds for tariffs. Plaintiffs claimed Nintendo raised prices on hardware like the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 controllers to offset tariffs and should pass on refunds now that the tariffs are deemed illegal. Nintendo argues consumers received what they bargained for and are not entitled to rebates due to subsequent legal developments, also stating they absorbed some tariff costs and made modest price adjustments.
