In a new report from 9News, the outlet relays the news that over 2,800 Nintendo Switch consoles were recently stolen off of a delivery truck.

A semi-truck driver, who was heading to a delivery destination, noticed during a pre-trip inspection that his trailer had been broken into. 2,810 consoles were stolen in total, and it seems that they were all of the Mario Kart World bundle variety.
