Nintendo and Sony have suspended the supply of consoles and the sale of games in Russia

The Japanese companies Nintendo and Sony announced ( here and here ) the suspension of the supply of their consoles to the territory of the Russian Federation. The same applies to games - the digital stores of both organizations have ceased their work, so now Russian-speaking users will not be able to purchase new items until the geopolitical situation changes.

The management of the companies was forced to take such measures due to the sanctions imposed by the EU and the USA against our country after the start of the special operation on the territory of Ukraine. At the same time, Sony announced its decision to donate $2 million to the Save the Children fund, which, among other things, helps the people of Ukraine recover from the armed conflict.

The resumption of activities of Russian companies will take place, apparently, after the completion of the special operation.
