Hard to believe the Switch has been out for over six years. When did you get yours?
Got mine on launch day! March 3, 2017. Lots of Zelda that day.

Just like you, also got mine on launch day! Didn't start Zelda until a few days afterwards, though.Hard to believe the Switch has been out for over six years. When did you get yours?

I didn't get a Switch of my own until Covid lockdown. I got the Lite. As for why, I just didn't see anything on it as a must-own until Smash, but by the time that came out it was right before I moved in with my at-the-time girlfriend (who had a Switch of her own); I figured since we'd be living together I'd just use hers. She got me a Switch of my own when we were living together during 2019, but it turns out we just weren't compatible as a partnership, and when we broke up in September of the same year I gave it back.
Then I got a nice little stimulus check in 2020 during Covid lockdown, and I definitely stimulated the economy -- I was able to buy a coral Switch Lite as well as Smash and Mario Maker 2.

I got mine on launch day as well. Was lucky enough to preorder it on Amazon months prior. I believe I started BoTW a month or two later as I was busy playing other games.
I was originally holding off on it, partially due to the shortages and game lineup, until Holiday 2017. But in June 2017, I had an important piano diploma exam, and my older sister cooked up a plan where she'd drive me to the exam and then go buy me a Switch as a prize! Well, the shortages made it tricky as our local EB Games was out of stock, but the employee there heard Toys R Us had some, and they did! So my sister surprised me with a Switch, BotW, and a BotW game case, and I had no idea until I got home!
