Thieves steal almost 3,000 Switch 2 consoles worth $1.4 million from truck headed to Texas GameStop

What just happened? Thieves have made off with almost 3,000 Switch 2 consoles after stealing them from a truck that was heading to a GameStop store in Texas. It's estimated that the value of the stolen goods was somewhere around $1.4 million, and the incident will doubtlessly affect stock levels at the store until replacements arrive.

Authorities say that the 2,810 Nintendo Switch 2 consoles were stolen from the back of a semi-truck as it made its way from Nintendo of America's Redmond headquarters to a GameStop store in Grapevine, Texas.

On June 8, the truck stopped at Love's Truck Stop in the Colorado town of Bennett. It's here that the driver noticed that someone had broken into the trailer and removed several pallets, reports Denver7.
