Lawsuit: Nintendo is getting tariff refunds—its customers should get them instead

A class action lawsuit alleges Nintendo is planning to keep tariff refunds from the US government rather than passing them to consumers who paid higher prices due to those tariffs. The suit claims Nintendo would effectively be paid twice—once by customers and again by the government. The refunds stem from a Supreme Court ruling that Trump-era tariffs were illegally imposed.

Background

The US Supreme Court recently ruled that tariffs imposed during the Trump administration were illegal, triggering a refund process for importers. Nintendo is among the companies affected by these tariffs and subsequent refunds.
