Nintendo Co. has turned to Samsung Electronics Co. to help make the main chips for the Switch 2, a move that may help the Japanese company ramp up production of the gaming console enough to sell a higher-than-projected 20 million units by March 2026. The decision marks a key win for Samsung, which is trying to compete with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) in making chips for the world's electronics, people familiar with the matter said.

NEW: Switch 2のリスク、従来はハードウェアのみと考えられていましたが、トランプ政権がコンテンツにも関税を課す可能性が出てきたことで、日本製ゲームがソニーやマイクロソフトに比べ多い任天堂ハードにとっては新たな心配事になる可能性も出てきました。 https://t.co/Mb5OdokeLH
