Overview

  • A Bloomberg report claims Nintendo removed its Amazon US listings after finding third-party sellers undercutting official game prices via imports from Southeast Asia.
  • Amazon offered special authenticity labels to distinguish official Nintendo products but the measures failed to return the Switch 2 to its US storefront.
  • The console is available through retail partners and on Amazon sites in Canada and the UK, highlighting its notable absence from the US marketplace.
  • Some first-party Switch titles, including Donkey Kong Bananza, have reappeared for pre-order on Amazon US even though the hardware remains unlisted.
  • Both companies have officially denied any dispute or product pullout, with Nintendo calling the claims unfounded and Amazon labeling the Bloomberg report “inaccurate.”
