The Nintendo Switch will be released on March 3 worldwide. Today, however, is March 1. Yet, a couple lucky folks in Japan apparently got their consoles delivered two days early.
Via Splatoon Nawabari, here is a Switch that was sent out early.
As the label says, it was slated to be delivered on March 3, but…
Oops!
The original Tweet got over a thousand likes.

So far, these do appear to be isolated incidents.
I confirmed some cases of Nintendo Switch got accidentally delivered today, Wednesday, not Friday…in Japan. Be careful for spoiler videos!

Meanwhile, everyone else with pending Switch orders hopes their delivery service also screws up, bringing the console two days early.
