The impact of the scale of the coronovirus outbreak in China has been felt in a lot of markets, with the gaming industry being one of them.
Earlier this month, we also received reports that the PS5 and Xbox Series X’s launches could end up being pushed back due to production delays and shortages for hardware manufacturers.
Nintendo have spoken already about how they’re expecting resulting production shortages to lead to stock shortages of the Switch in Japan, and though they had earlier said that such wouldn’t be the case in western markets, a recent report by Bloomberg suggests otherwise.
