Nintendo pulls Switch 2 pre-orders in US over Trump tariffs

Edit: also, these will never be on shelves. They will be a membership exclusive online order regardless, even after the preorder-only window.

Yeah, I saw that, but I read it as they were not doing them on the same date to do a wait-and-see with the Cheeto-faced shitgibbons tariffs.

I believe that’s correct. And as others have pointed out this is likely an anti-scalping measure which changes my view on it.

I do however hope they will keep a good stock of them. Having to be a subscriber is annoying enough but even when I was one I was never able to be quick enough when N64 ones went back in stock.
