Nintendo Co. pulled its products from Amazon.com Inc.’s US site after a disagreement over unauthorized sales, meaning the e-commerce company missed out on the recent debut of Nintendo’s Switch 2 — the biggest game console launch of all time.

According to the report, Nintendo pulled Amazon US' official sales privileges after clocking that "unauthorised sales" were appearing on the site, undercutting Nintendo's prices. The anonymous source claimed that select sellers were bulk-buying Nintendo products in Southeast Asia, before flogging them at a reduced rate on Amazon US.

The report claims that Nintendo noticed some third-party marketplaces on Amazon were selling Nintendo games at a lower price. Bloomberg’s source says that some sellers were buying Nintendo products in bulk in Southeast Asia, then selling them on Amazon’s US store.
