Thieves stole 2,810 Nintendo Switch 2 consoles from a delivery truck heading to Texas. The criminals took nearly 1.4 million dollars worth of gaming systems during transport. A truck driver discovered the break-in at Love's Truck Stop near Bennett, Colorado. The driver performed routine safety checks and found the cargo area damaged. Police continue searching for the stolen merchandise and any suspects involved.
Nintendo shipped the consoles from Washington state headquarters to GameStop stores across Texas. The truck driver claimed he did not know specific cargo details beyond games and toys. Investigators have not determined exactly when criminals accessed the trailer during the cross-country journey. Anyone with information about the theft should contact authorities at 720-874-8477. The missing consoles will not count toward Nintendo's official sales figures.
Switch 2 sales reached 3.5 million units during the first four days after launch worldwide. American customers purchased 1.1 million consoles during the opening week alone. The new system sells twice as fast as the original Switch model did at release. Market experts predict Nintendo will move 16 million units throughout 2025 despite the theft. Texas gamers must wait longer for replacement inventory to arrive at local stores.
