Sure thing. Here it goes:

So, picture this: A trucker rolls into this Lowe’s Truck Stop in Bennett, Colorado, right? It’s like, any other day—except it’s totally not. Dude pops the latch on his trailer, and BAM! No consoles. Like, 2,810 Nintendo Switch 2s just gone. Poof! Imagine the dude’s face. No joke, because that’s like $1.4 million in gaming goodness just doing a vanishing act. Sheriff’s all over it on Twitter, or X—whatever it’s called these days—asking, like, hey, help us out here!
The driver? Completely clueless. Seriously, he thought he was hauling toys or something. Guess someone knew better. $499 a pop for these bad boys, so yeah, math it out: over a mil. But wait, who did it? Maybe at Lowe’s, maybe not. So, the cops are like, “Hey, folks, seen anything wild lately?”
Oh, right, there’s a tweet too, with a truck pic smashed into your Twitter feed. Random side note: why does Twitter always try to show you the dumbest stuff you never asked for? Anyway—no, wait—like I was saying…
This Switch 2, it’s kind of a big deal. Launched June 5th, flying off shelves like crazy—over 3.5 million in mere days. Unlike those graphics card debacles… talk about a facepalm, right? They had stock everywhere! Scalpers, eat your heart out. But nope, our friendly neighborhood bandits still swiped the shipment. Bold move, really. They must’ve had a hook-up or some inside scoop.
So, now if you’re out there buying one, do a double-take if it’s from some online sketchball. Nintendo probably has those seared by serial number. Fancy that, they might even zap the stolen ones useless. Who knows what magic they’ll pull with all this tech?
Meanwhile, I’m over here wondering, who else is too scared to order anything online now? Maybe it’s just me. Whatever. Keep an eye out, yeah?
Oh, and Tom’s Hardware? They’re all over Google News if you want the full scoop. Not that you don’t already have enough stuff to read…
