8BitDo no longer shipping to US from China due to Trump tariffs
- 8BitDo has temporarily suspended all shipments from its Chinese warehouse to U.S. Customers as of early 2025 due to new tariffs.
- This suspension stems from the Trump administration's removal of de minimis exemptions and imposition of a 145% tariff on Chinese imports.
- The tariffs have caused substantial cost increases, forcing 8BitDo and other gaming companies like Anbernic to halt shipments or raise prices.
- U.S. Customers can still order 8BitDo controllers, mice, and peripherals available in the company’s U.S. Warehouse, but some popular products remain inaccessible.
- This situation may continue to disrupt the video game and tabletop industries and affect consumers, while 8BitDo has not clarified if the pause might be reversed.
