Bloomberg previously reported that Nintendo’s updated Switch model with OLED display and more powerful NVIDIA chip would be sold at a substantially higher price than the current model. If a leaked retailer listing shared by Nintend’Alerts is to be believed, that certainly appears to be the case—according to the screenshot, the so-called Nintendo Switch Pro will purportedly be sold for €399, which is €100 more than the current model. Nintendo is expected to officially announce its updated Switch before next week’s E3 2021 event.

That's all we have for now, there's no other data / attributes in the listing right now. pic.twitter.com/fhEzNVORNn
[…] The supposed listing was shared on social media, after French publication Centro – which previously leaked Pokémon’s Diamond and Pearl remakes before their official announcement – claimed it had verified a retail listing for a new Switch SKU, set to go live on Friday, June 4.
