The case of the missing $400,000 worth of cute hand-cranked game consoles.

Did they “fall off a truck”? Kinda! Playdate’s Cabel Sasser says the company lost two entire pallets of the tiny yellow Game Boy alternative in Las Vegas, when they were delivered to a nextdoor gas station instead of Playdate’s warehouse.

It seems whoever signed for the handhelds may have gotten, ahem, creative: “Seven of them have been registered to people who live in north Las Vegas.” More at Game File and Game Developer.
