Very mixed on this. I'm not really in the market for most Nintendo hardware variants anyway. I only ever had a DSi or OG 3DS for instance. I never picked up any of their revisions or upgrades.
Most of these features are just things that should've launched with the Switch. Back in 2017 the Switch could've easily had 64 GB of storage, a good kickstand, a 7 inch screen, and an ethernet port in the dock. The OLED screen I don't really care too much about one way or the other. It's better than an LCD screen, but wasn't feeling absent back in 2017 or even 2021.
The price is too high. This premium offering should be $300. The standard Switch should be $250, and the Lite should be $170.
If we still somehow do get a Switch Pro, Nintendo is certainly taking a long time. The DSi and New 3DS launched about exactly 4 years after the original models launched. We're at over 4 and a half years by time this OLED model launches.
