Tariff situation in the USA A constantly developing storyBut I think most will agree that it is at best euphemistical; There are only so many miniatures of Warhammer can explain. Since their announcement at the beginning of April, these tariffs have created a logistic nightmare for both the main players and smaller companies.
As a result of retail tariffs, Chinese goods will boost by up to 145%, 8bito He temporarily suspended shipping actions from the Chinese warehouse to the USA (Via Via Polygon). Collect one of the company’s controllers in the shopping basket, enter the American delivery address “Your order cannot be sent to the selected address.”
8bitdo is known for its colorful pieces of the set, such as Ultimate 2C Wireless Controller and bizarre peripheral, such as the Retro mechanical keyboard. This does not affect every product available on the 8BITDO website, because some items will continue to be sent from the American warehouse in the USA.
However, currently there are no tips where specific supplies are based on any of the 8bitDo products, so you won’t know until you try to check out. Because the tariff situation is so turbulent, it is not clear how long customers based in the US will not be able to buy a selection of 8bitDo shares. At the time of writing this text, the 8BITDDO target side only specifies that the company’s Chinese magazine will be “closed from 1 to 5 May 2025 on the day of work, and the shipping will resume on May 6, 2025.”
As I said, 8bitdo is neither the first nor the last business that he would have to call. At the beginning, Nintendo initially postponed the ads in the US for Switch 2 in the lightweight of the tariff situation, before he recently undertook to make $ 450 for the basic console. The peripheral, like Joy-Con 2 controllers, will be more pricey to endure the weight of “changes in market conditions”. Apple moved quickly, apparently a rider for 600 tons of iPhones from India-only so that the tariffs are subjected to a 90-day break.
But these are some of the above -mentioned main players, and for Littler Guys tariffs they represent potentially a very gloomy future. For one destructive example, the publisher of board games CMON had to stop many of his projects and dismiss employees. In particular, the creators of board games, the creators of Wingspan even announced the plans of “suing the president”.
It is obvious that the tariffs have already caused widespread interference. It is not possible to say exactly how this situation shakes, but I have the impression that it will be worse before it is better.
