# Nintendo files motion to dismiss consumer lawsuit over tariff refunds

**[GamesIndustry.biz](https://daily.dev/sources/gamesindustry)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Nintendo has filed a motion to dismiss a class action lawsuit accusing it of failing to pass tariff refunds to consumers. The lawsuit alleged Nintendo raised hardware prices while seeking US tariff compensation, and that it should have refunded customers who bought products between February 2025 and February 2026. Nintendo's lawyers argued consumers received exactly what they paid for and are not entitled to rebates due to subsequent tariff litigation outcomes. Nintendo also clarified it did not pass the full tariff cost to consumers and absorbed tariff costs on some popular products, including the Switch 2.
