Although claims have been made that container ships have
stopped unloading at ports on the West Coast, including one widely shared photo
stating ships have stopped unloading at the Port of Seattle, such claims are,
shall we say, overblown to say the least. For the first quarter, the number of
ships unloading at the Port are actually
slightly up in numbers from 2024 for the first quarter, although in some
cases, the amount of freight unloaded can run up to 30% less than expected. Of
course, given the two to four weeks it takes for a freighter to cross the
Pacific from China, those ships arriving now may have left pre-tariff and we
may see a significant drop in shipments arriving if more companies take their
cue from The Op and Cephalofair Games and send shipments back to their point of
origin (See “The
OP May Send Fifteen Containers of Games Back to China”). If tariffs do not
get reverted soon, the holiday season, which accounts for some 40% of retail
sales and accounts for the majority of profits for the toy and game industry
will see
a significant drop in sales and lots of empty spaces on the shelf.

People are using this as a quick explanation of what tariffs are and how the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act helped deepen the Great Depression. We have historical record of what overtly high tariffs did last time and yet the administration has decided, as of this writing, to keep going ahead with them. I want to emphasize “as of this writing” because no-one is quite sure where the administration plans to go with tariffs in the immediate future. Case in point, Portal Games. This email discusses some of the actions the company plans to take in response to American tariffs and notably, advises American customers who want to back their upcoming release Race for Berlin to put in a $1 placeholder pledge until the company determines if the administration will change its mind about how much tariffs should be:
