AT(admission ticket 入場券 nyuujou-ken) won't be sold out, no worry,
you can buy it at regular ticket vending machine anytime like this.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mia2bE3NMLkAT fare is 140Y/adult, valid for only for 2 hrs(120 mins), not allowed to enter train(cars).
It is necessary even if you enter Shinkansen area fr JR-EAST conventional line train.
(note)
AT is only a paper ticket, IC card ticket(such as Suica, PASMO) cannot be used as AT,
The foreigner in the above video can read Japanese,
he purchased fr Japanese display menu but English button with, easy.

And,,, JR TOKYO stn is a bit special as track layout,
Tokaido Shinkansen where DY arr/dep is "JR-CENTRAL(JR-Tokai)'',
so you cannot see DY closest if entered JR-EAST Shinkansen ticket gate,
but with same AT, you can also walk around freely
to JR-EAST Shinkansen and conventional line(such as Yamanote line) platforms.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41ooWsjsWCQDY cannot run on JR-EAST Shinkansen tracks, white/red shinkansen "East i" works, anyway.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VW2zjtHlgGw"Color" is the biggest reason why DY is more popular than "Eeast i".
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076935/Real Japanese rail fans like both, though.
