Nintendo’s unreleased Switch Pro price might’ve just leaked from a retailer

Nintendo’s next-gen Switch console has popped up in rumors for a few years now, but the Japanese giant has always shot them down. Switch sales have been spectacular thus far, and sales have continued to soar during the pandemic. A hardware refresh didn’t seem imminent, even though Sony and Microsoft were hyping their next-gen PS5 and Xbox Series X devices that were released in late 2020. Nintendo did give the Switch a small refresh and launched a cheaper handheld-only Switch Lite version to go along with the regular one, but it never confirmed plans to make a Switch Pro.

That’s about to change soon, as a report a few days ago said that Nintendo is eying mid-June for a Switch Pro announcement, with the event expected to precede the E3 gaming conference. The Switch Pro should be released in the fall, and it is expected to be slightly more expensive than its predecessor. Since then, we also learned more details about the Switch Pro’s purported specs, with that report also suggesting a launch is imminent. Now, a purported Switch Pro listing in a French retailer’s internal inventory system may have just revealed the new console’s price.
