Nintendo\u00a0has filed a lawsuit seeking refunds \u201cwith interest\u201d of payments made under U.S. President Donald Trump\u2019s tariffs that were recently invalidated by the U.S. Supreme Court.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The video game company on Friday joined thousands of American importers who have filed requests in the U.S. Court of International Trade for repayment of the steep tariffs Trump imposed on nearly every country on earth under emergency powers.<\/p>\n

Nintendo\u2019s lawsuit does not say how much it has paid in tariffs since they were first enacted a year ago. It asks the court to order refunds to be paid out \u201cpromptly,\u201d as well as award payment of legal costs and any other \u201cfurther relief as may be just and proper.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nintendo said it has been \u201csubstantially harmed by the unlawful execution and imposition of the unauthorized Executive Orders and corresponding payment\u201d of Trump\u2019s tariffs.<\/p>\n

Nintendo last year indicated that the tariffs were behind the company\u2019s decision to pause pre-orders of its new Switch 2 gaming console in the U.S. and Canada.<\/p>\n

The company, which builds its consoles in Vietnam and other Asian countries, said it needed to \u201cassess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Experts at the time said other consumer electronics manufacturers would face similar cost pressures due to Trump\u2019s tariffs.<\/p>\n
