Nintendo Switch Shipment Suspended Going Out and Demand Increased April 8 15:09

Nintendo, a major game console maker, has decided to suspend shipments of domestic consoles such as the Nintendo Switch. This means that while domestic demand is growing due to factors such as self-restraint due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, production at contracted Chinese factories is not keeping up.

Nintendo will stop shipping two types of consoles: Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Light.

In Japan, demand for game consoles is growing due to the spread of new coronavirus infections, which has led to a growing number of self-restraints and school closures, as well as the sale of new software in popular series.

Production is outsourced to factories in China and Vietnam.However, given that production in China is limited and supply cannot keep up, we have decided to suspend shipments to Japan except for pre-order sales. That is.

The timing of the resumption is undecided at this time, and Nintendo says, "I'm sorry for the inconvenience to the customers who were looking forward, but we will try to deliver them as soon as possible."
