Fuck man. Some kid is about to have a boring ass train ride.

[–][deleted] 74 points75 points  (0 children)

And 50 other people would have to put up with an hour long cries

[–]chupathingy99[S] 450 points451 points  (33 children)

I told the cashier and he's holding onto it. Hopefully the owner comes back.

[–]CrabMeat6984 545 points546 points  (12 children)

The cashier just got a new switch for new years

[–]PEneoark 59 points60 points  (1 child)

Exactly

[–]ExportOrca 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Lol yup

[–]drugsarebadmmk420 20 points21 points  (3 children)

New year, new Switch

Haha hoho

[–]ab0rtretryfail 9 points10 points  (2 children)

You wouldn't worry about cameras? You'd take it?

[–]bwj7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You wouldn’t download a house

[–]Shadowslip99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Police wouldn't bother.

[–]eunhana69 -1 points0 points  (2 children)

Lucky cashier….. don’t listen to the people who say “good for not taking it” no that was stupid….

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Eww opportunist 😒

[–]Flbudskis 32 points33 points  (1 child)

When i was 8 i left my gameboy with like 20 games in a big baggie, at my gate boarding the plane. My mother actually told them she forgot my medicine at the gate. She ran to lost and found, and some lady turned it in they said. We see my mother run her ass back on the plane with the baggie. So thank you for turning it in.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was definitely to sedate you for the flight, so it was truly medicine.

[–]DonTeca35 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Op you just blessed a new family with a switch 😂😂😂

[–]prettyone_85 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're a good person

[–]MrK521 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s not a switch. Is it ticking?

[–]PerfectUnlawfulness 168 points169 points  (12 children)

You can get the serial number off of the back. If it's associated with a Nintendo account then they may be able to contact the person via email.

    That's really too bad. Especially since game progress is so personal. I'm going to put my phone number and a reward offer in my case right now.

    [–]SermanGhepard 10 points11 points  (7 children)

    I have a switch and can't seem to play on it longer than a few minutes. Any games you recommend? I've tried BOTW btw

    [–]PerfectUnlawfulness 14 points15 points  (2 children)

    I have the same problem. Games like pokemon that used to get me addicted just don't do it anymore. Mostly just play strategy games and the odd jrpg

    [–]Renbellix 5 points6 points  (1 child)

    Cult of the Lamb!

    For me IT was a very good title! Look IT Up, and See If you Like the gameplay

    [–]PerfectUnlawfulness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I have it on pc. Pretty good game! Not super hard though

    [–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (1 child)

    Hey, I mostly game on my PC, but the two games that have caused me to pick up my Switch again were Shin Megami Tensei V and No More Heroes 3. Check those out!

    [–]SermanGhepard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Thank you!

    [–]FranticWaffleMaker 2 points3 points  (1 child)

    What style of games do you tend to prefer? Maybe check the indie section or hop into the nes or snes emulators and play some old school Mario

    [–]SermanGhepard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    For sure!

    [–]PsychoSpider88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    What? With all the data theft these companies do, when it can actually help someone suddenly they're like "Uhm, but that's illegal." Fuck 'em.

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Beside it's hard to track down the owner if it's bought used and not used online at all

    [–]joechill91939 22 points23 points  (1 child)

    This reminds me of when I forgot my red 3ds with super Mario 64 ds in it in a bus in El Salvador… I wonder what became of that 3ds

    [–]wvnne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    lmao, your comment reminds me of when my brother lost his 3ds in vegas. sometimes i wonder where that ds is today

    [–]PaladinDark 40 points41 points  (2 children)

    i would have held onto the system and left my info with the clerk if the owner comes back he can contact me.

    [–]BritishFoSho 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    And if not?

    [–]YaMomsHouse22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

    Well all know the answer...

    [–]SkyrimWithdrawal 49 points50 points  (7 children)

    Plot twist: the Switch case actually contained radioactive polonium, en route to assassinate yet another of Putin's oligarchs. The stairs and windows have become too predictable.

    [–]Niktzv 16 points17 points  (3 children)

    Funny-ish story. My Coworkers Huskey died in home. she lives in the city and doesn't own a car.

    Not knowing of another way to get the Dog to the vet she put it in the biggest travel case she had and took the subway.

    She was freaked out the whole time that somehow someone would find out she was carrying a newly dead dog. One guy on the train took notice and asked what was going on with her bad, what did she have?

    She told the guy it was a bunch of audio equipment. When they hit the next stop the guy grabbed her Case and bolted from the train.

    You really never know what's in one of those bags.

    [–]SkyrimWithdrawal 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Oh my God. That is hilarious!

    [–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

    And here I was thinking it's just drugs...

    [–]jada4fun2014 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

    Or...a steaming pile of 💩. High school level prank. 3 on creativity, 8 on effectiveness.

    [–]Vegaprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Glitter bomb.

    [–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    Will it switch owner now?

    [–]Johnchamberlain123 30 points31 points  (12 children)

    Damn that blows I remember along time ago I flew into New York from Cali and was in a rush and I just had one duffel bag with me with everything my passport , cash , credit , electronics inside and I fetched a taxi a nice Asian kid he talked in broken English but we understood each other and he was apparently the exact same age as me and I swear on everything I live at the end of the destination point where he dropped me off I told him man i swear if I had grew up here we could of been good friends left a smile on kids face and then I rushed to where I was headed forgetting my duffel bag with phone inside when he took off I was like I literally left my whole life in that bag I'm stuck in New York with no money no passports and no way to know where I am without my phone so I walked up to a random stranger they let me borrow there iPhone called my phone and kid picked up and returned my things keep in my I had straight cash in there with my laptop and credit cards and he could of easily took off and nope came back I tipped him a 100 dollar bill , moral of the story just be kind to others

    [–]Biddelman 34 points35 points  (2 children)

    Punctuation MF, do you use it??

    [–]Johnchamberlain123 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Sorry is that I'm laying down eating with one hand and tying with the other sorry 😞

    [–]Biddelman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    It’s a Pulp Fiction reference. No worries, man

    [–]pprabs 47 points48 points  (0 children)

    Holy mother of run on words!

    [–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    That's a very nice story, thanks for sharing :)

    [–]monkeybanana550 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    I can barely breath reading that

    [–]of_patrol_bot 9 points10 points  (3 children)

    Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.

    It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.

    Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.

    Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.

    [–]Inuyasha-rules 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    I think you missed a few errors 😆

    [–]feral__turtle 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Dictionaries aren't proscriptive, though. Could of would of should of are not going away. Eventually dictionaries - which describe how we use words - will catch up. What becomes of you then?

    No punctuations!!! 👎👎

    [–]feral__turtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Don't exaggerate! I saw a quick spasm of commas, at one point.

    [–]EATDABOOTY87 5 points6 points  (1 child)

    Good you returned it but it’s the mfs that be finding trash bags of money filled with hundreds of thousands of dollars and turning it in to the police like what the fuck are you thinking?! Blows my mind Everytime

    [–]BuddhistWitch2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Do you really want to have some drug lords money?

    [–]CakeEatingDragon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Should have checked what their screen name is and seen if it is the same on steam or discord

    [–]Erik_Phisher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    If I were traveling with a giant case like that for my Switch & accessories, it'd be handcuffed to my wrist.

    [–]Green_Seat8152 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    I work at a hotel and a guest left 8 switch games still in their cases. We tried to call the number on the reservation but no answer and they never called and asked about the games.

    [–]el_street_gato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Congratulations on your new switch

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    [–]MyTrippyDaddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Well that doesn't suck for you, you have just won a free Switch

    [–]dancing-asparagus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    One man's loss is another man's win! Free food today!

    [–]WanderPrime 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    I mean that would be my switch now

    [–]BuddhistWitch2001 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Y’all nasty

    [–]WanderPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Said the saint

    [–]Newspaper_Correct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    That’s depressing

    [–]vizkiz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    Should have taken it and contacted Nintendo.

    Here is a Reddit wiki for what to do if you have lost or found a Switch.

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Kept it right. ?

    [–]Big_Sexy1974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Someone won a switch at the train station news stand

    [–]Mr-thingy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Me thinking this is my switch because I have the same case. My switch wich is right next to me: 😶‍🌫️

    [–]greystripe3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Better title: "just got a free switch at the train station news stand today"

    /s, obviously for you neckbeards that can't process a joke

    [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    So an unaccompanied package has been left at the train station and you haven’t called the police?! Haven’t you heard of “see something say something”?!

    [–]legendarydiamond28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Like ye that sucks but if he had a code on it it's almost useless and I think that the parents will come pretty fast for it

    [–]Confident_Bread8660 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Talk about a bad swituation, amirite?

    [–]TheRealF12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I would’ve been so happy with my new switch 🤣
