As if Canada didn’t have enough reasons to hate Donald Trump, the reality-TV-star-turned-politician’s excessive tariffs will delay Switch 2 pre-orders not only in the United States but in the Great White North as well.
CBC Radio senior writer Jonathan Ore was told by Nintendo of Canada on Tuesday that Canadians will also have to sit out tomorrow’s global pre-order extravaganza. The upcoming console’s planned June 5 release date still hasn’t changed. Polygon reached out for confirmation and received the same statement.
Trump recently declared a trade war against the entire world, including islands inhabited solely by penguins, by levying tariffs on just about everything coming into the US. The stock market immediately crumbled and many economic experts warn of a possible recession.
Sorry, Canada. Signed, one very embarrassed American.
