Nintendo aren't going to move to America to get away from tariffs because they don't care. Their audience will buy the switch anyway, regardless of its price point and regardless of how much of that price point is affected by tariffs.
Also no company is going to move to America because of these tariffs because the Trump administration flip flops on an hourly basis. Who knows what policy will be next month let alone in 4 years time.
Even if they moved the factory into the US, wouldn't they still need to import all the parts, and get hit by tariffs on those parts anyway? Like, the whole supply chain would have to move into the US. That could be a decade worth of effort.
