When a new device comes out, tech-focused YouTube channels can’t help but put them through all sorts of durability tests. Yesterday, GizmoSlip did just that, and in some… creative ways.

As a new Switch owner, I almost couldn’t help but cringe a bit seeing the abuse it was being put through. But hey, it survived numerous drops onto concrete, various trick shots such as being tossed through the air into the dock, and more. Guess Nintendo made a pretty sturdy device!

Bye-Bye BoxBoy! released in Europe yesterday on the 3DS eShop. It was originally thought that North America would have the game on the same day due a tweet Nintendo sent out a couple of weeks ago, but that message was deleted – and it’s still not out in the states.

Polygon reached out to Nintendo to find out what happened. Nintendo said that “incorrect information about an upcoming game for Nintendo 3DS was posted on Nintendo of America’s social media channels.” Adding further, the spokesperson said, “Nintendo will provide additional updates once the information has been corrected and confirmed.”
