7,000 Wii U consoles stolen from warehouse

4.6
Between 2100 Saturday and noon Sunday, thieves managed to steal around 7,000 Wii U consoles from a Seattle Air Cargo warehouse.

Using the forklift trucks already in the warehouse, they loaded two 53-foot-long trailers with at least 64 pallets of Wii U consoles. The estimated value of stolen goods comes to about $2 million.

Among the console pallets there were also pallets filled with Wii U games that were also loaded into a box van.

Please be on the lookout for anyone selling several thousand Wii U consoles described as “an unwanted present”.

the Wii U actually isn't that bad of a console, it's graphics beat xbox 360's and PS3's. ;)

But seriously, that's terrible for Nintendo, they can't catch a break.

AR15 Who would want to steal Wii's? They are pretty bad in my opinion.


They may be bad, but they are desirable. If they tried to sell them on, they would sell pretty quickly and for a fair bit of money.
