If these tariffs don't get reversed fast then this time all three console manufacturers are gonna get fucked over by a global recession instead of Nintendo benefiting from it greatly. If they stick around then at least there won't be huge stock issues for a couple years this time and it'll mainly be US sales impacted. Nintendo would also be hurt the most this time if they do since this is right when they're about to launch a new console while the PS5 and Xbox Series are past their peak periods. This also makes 2028 for the PS6 and next Xbox more appealing to wait this shit out if need be so I wonder if plans could change with those if they're currently planned for sooner than that.

A final thing is like most people I did not expect the tariffs to be this insane so if they do stay people better get ready for the world economy to go to shit again for a while despite the impacts of the the pandemic, lockdowns and Ukraine invasion still being felt. I guess the 2nd half of this decade might not be that much better for the world than the 1st half after all.
