Just a quick question. Are we sure that the current definition of the numbers/letters in the serial numbers is correct because some serial numbers would indicate that well over 20 million Nintendo Switches were produced.
Bought a new switch today after selling a used one (when I bought the used one 2 days back, it had firmware 3.0.1) at gamestop. Got firmware 3.0.0 with serial code beginning with XAW400022
Almost to 75 serials on the google doc 
Remember to add yours if you havent. You can now reach the google doc easily by going to http://bit.ly/switchfw

XAJ400173xxxxx, neon, 3.0.0.
Guess it's an Asia region because of the -ASI at the end of the model number.

Getting another Switch tomorrow (for updating and new games), commenting here to remind myself to add the serial here when I get it
Okay my new Switch is also a Neon one from Amazon.co.uk. Came on 2.3.0 again and its serial is XAJ700113.
Means I can keep the new one for Homebrew and update the one that already has my Zelda save, Mario Kart save and Mii on it

So it seems like the lower firmware in Bestbuy might be becoming slim. I was able to purchase one with 2.3.0 about 3 weeks ago and now another one that my cousin purchased at the exact same location is on 3.0.0.
My switch:
Serial: XAW10019
Region: USA
Firmware: 2.3.0
System Color: Gray
Store: Best Buy
Purchase Date: 8/27/17
Cousin's switch:
Serial: XAW400023
Region: USA
Firmware: 3.0.0
System Color: Neon
Store: Best Buy
Purchase Date: 9/21/17

On a side note, I put a hold on another switch at a GameStop and called in to ask for the version number. Unfortunately they were not able to provide me the exact number but he was able to confirm that it is higher than 400023. So it may be that GameStop and BestBuy consoles are currently at 3.0.0. Once the new batches of consoles with Mario Odyssey are released then there is a high probability that the firmware will be at 3.0.1 or greater.

If I were to pre order the Super Mario Odyssey bundle, would that come on a low firmware or would it come on 3.0.1 and up?

TwoSpikedHands:
yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
