The gaming market is a good example of how they tried to mitigate this. Firstly, Nintendo tried to not surge the price of the Switch 2 by instead increasing the prices of accessories. Then they raised Switch 1 prices. It might still end up needing to raise the Switch 2 price if this keeps up.

Sony and Microsoft did price hikes outside of the US at first as an example of how other countries may be paying for US tarriffs indirectly. But as of a month ago these had to relent and eventually they did both do price hikes on their systems.
