It has one, which is visible throughout Europe. Here the Switch is sold mostly at ~330€, and in several European countries (especially Germany), this is already considered too much. It seems to me like 299 was really the sweet spot between profitability and sales potential, but 349 and up could be too much.

I might be wrong with my analysis though. So if Nintendo keeps the old model in production, we should get a better view on the ratio between LCD, OLED and Lite models. If the LCD model sells about as well than the OLED or even better, it might very well indicate that the pricetag is considered too high for the small gains and people opting for the LCD model instead. If that happens, I could see Nintendo stopping production of the old model and reducing the price on the new one down to 299 as they can then see themselves that it was too high.

Switch, in Europe, is a top 10 all time best selling console.  Doesn't seem like a big issue to me.  

It's just an educated guess based on the information I got, and it's certainly not true for all of Europe, but I'm pretty sure about my feeling here for some countries within Europe.

Alsi, it's part of the Top 10... at the 10th spot and with just 22M sold, only one quarter of the worldwide sales so far. That is a bit too low for my taste to not have some kind of issue other regions don't have or not to the same degree. And the higher price is the only reason that comes to my mind here.
