Nintendo has partnered with Japanese third-party retail sites like Mercari, Yahoo Auctions, and Rakuten Rakuma to combat fraudulent Switch 2 listings.
These websites have agreed to proactively remove listings that violate their terms of service and establish a collaborative system for sharing information.
Yahoo Japan will have a probationary period starting June 5th where listings for Switch 2 will be removed or accounts selling them suspended.
Nintendo hopes this partnership will reduce scalping and plans to expand this approach to other regions after its implementation in Japan.
