AFAIK Switch cartridges are made in Japan. US blu-ray movies and Xbox physical games are made in Mexico.

I don't see any tarrif regarding Japan, if this is the case Nintendo games will be effectively the only one unaffected in the market which can lead to a significant market advantage for Nintendo 

Xbox and Playstation games being sold for 87,5 USD in other hand would be a disaster that will effectively end physical gaming market for both systems. For Microsoft which is going full on service and digital I don't think it's a concern, but for Sony most of its fandom loyalty comes to the fact they still release physical games. Even if Sony wants to go full digital eventually I think this can enter in a dangerous territory where they will lose part of their loyal userbase 

The Switch system is assembled in China, as are the PS5 and XS. The cartridges are made in Japan, but Republicans have had a grudge against Japan in the past. Reagan made them sign the Plaza Accord.
