Nintendo also suspends deliveries of their Nintendo Switch game consoles and software to Russia, Nikkei newspaper said.
The decision was made in view of disruptions of the chain of supplies and payment problems because of sanctions introduced against Russia after the start of the military operation in Ukraine.
