BRUSSELS (Reuters) – The European Commission included restrictions on sales of video games and joysticks to Russia in its 16th package of sanctions on Moscow, the proposal document showed.
The restrictions would impact sales of consoles like Microsoft’s Xbox, Nintendo’s Switch and Sony Playstation.
“Video game controllers, gaming controllers, flight simulator controllers, gamepads, joysticks and other input units, for video game consoles or entertainment systems, either corded or cordless” should be restricted, the proposal said.
