Nintendo amiibo prices in the US are increasing, reportedly due to US tariffs on goods manufactured in China. This affects new amiibo releases, including those for *The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom* and *Street Fighter 6*.
The price hike appears to be a direct consequence of US tariffs on products imported from China. Despite Nintendo moving some of its console production to Vietnam, accessories like amiibo remain primarily manufactured in China, making them subject to these tariffs.
Retailers like GameStop and Walmart have already reflected these price increases in their listings. For instance, *The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom* amiibo, which previously cost between $15.99 and $19.99, are now listed at $29.99. *Street Fighter 6* amiibo are even higher, at $39.99.
