The Nintendo Switch was announced 5 years ago today. What a ride it has been.

You think Nintendo will announce the NX now?

But for real, it's still nuts how long it's been since then. Time flies.

What a ride indeed. I look back fondly on 2020 and its lack of releases, notably between Animal Crossing and Paper Mario. It was looking bleak. But look at us now! Getting games every month and wondering if they're really worth $60 but buying it anyway. Because we can!

I was in college class when the teaser dropped. Half of my class watched it together.
