My console is a romanian import. [PAL] Does that change anything?

Was a bundle (if yes, which): No

 

Actually the first 5 letters do not matter by themselves (which you can see, because the same ones have different firmware).
Serial number decoding:
X: From NX. It's actually the platform code.
A: It's the hardware code. A: Switch, B: Joy-Con (L), C: Joy-Con (R). And I assume D for Pro (check the plastic sliver that came with, if it exists).
J/W: West or Japan? Probably the region that was supposed to reach. Maybe with all the pre-orders and the after-launch demand, they just sent them everywhere to keep people happy. Or, at some point they weren't Region-free.
10/14/40/70: Factory made or assembled?

So the best way to know, would be the 3rd-5th characters and on what million (m)/thousand (k) you are.

E.g my switch:
Made on:
J70
Batch:
2.7m
Version:
v1.0

or just J70 2.7m v1.0

 

You are welcome.
And this way you are still anonymous with 100 thousand different combinations.

 

Nope.
With J70 2.7m v1.0, I meant a faster way of reporting it, instead of saying "made on j70", "it's batch 2.7million" and "the version that came with is v1.0".

Example with a random serial number:
Lets say I have XAJ70002712345 and it came with version 2.3.

I report here: J70, 2.7m, v2.3

-------------

Again XAJ70 says in what factory this switch was made.
And 002712345 show in which order you switch was made.
Another example: If you have XAW10 and 000000001, then congratulations, you have the first switch that was made in factory 10 and was originally for West region.

-------------

Disclaimer:
J/W is assumed and the 2 digits following may mean another thing:
Manufacturer 10, factory located at west or japan.
The last 9 digits may be semi-random, but I doubt it, because in here there are already reported switches that are in the 10 million batch and all have new (2.1 - 2.3) firmware baked.
That's why we need million and thousands.
