I think the age of price cuts is behind us, and it wouldn't surprise me if the Switch retains its price point to the day it's discontinued. Companies seem to have run the numbers and decided it's not worth it, not to mention the current economic climate which is seeing PS5 and Xbox Series raising rather than lowering their prices.

One thing's for sure though, and that is that Nintendo doesn't care about arbitrary sales milestones. If they did, they would have printed another 1 million Wiis so they could say they outsold the PS1, or another 6 million DS's so they could say they outsold the PS2.
They care more about profit than units sold; they're not going to be aggressive in pushing for the #1 spot. if it happens, it happens, but they're not going to go out of their way to ensure it.
