No OLED? $90 games? No thanks
Vote with your wallet. Buy it if you think what Nintendo is doing is okay, if this is how you want to be treated; the choice is yours.
That's fair - I'm hoping the thread is helpful though for those trying to get ahold of one and not have to pay over retail on any marketplace.

Yes. I figured writing everything as 12am est was the easiest way to understand.

As someone who's never owned a Switch and just wants to play Pokemon, should I buy this over a Switch Lite?

Technically it's 12AM EDT, or ET, since daylight saving time is in effect in most of the US.

The next pokemon game (legends Z-A) is rumored to be switch 1 compatible, so you will have a nice selection of pokemon games to choose from (BDSP, SwSh, LegArc, LGP/E, Scar/Viol) and Legends Z-A. BUT if you are trying to future proof yourself for gen 10 then grab the switch 2. Also, Scarlet/Violet have visual enhancements and performance improvements when using the switch 2. With that said, you could start with the older pokemon games on the switch lite, then upgrade to the switch 2 in the future. Digital and physical purchases for switch lite will transfer to the switch 2. Hope this helps!
