Lawsuit says Nintendo customers paid more while company sought tariff refunds

Plaintiffs say Switch buyers paid higher prices while Nintendo pursued government refunds tied to those tariffs.

SEATTLE — Consumers have sued Nintendo of America, alleging the company raised prices during the federal tariff period and then sought refunds on the same import costs, according to a class-action complaint filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Western Washington.

The lawsuit was filed by two plaintiffs, one from California and one from Seattle, on behalf of a proposed nationwide class of people who bought Nintendo products from February 2025 through February 2026, when the company is accused of passing tariff costs along to customers.
