Why not? I don't think them doing that is guaranteed but I don't see much reason for them not to. For the price part that big of a jump would certainly be pushing it but I could see it being $449. The price in Japan is probably gonna have a big increase though.

The prices in Japan haven't moved in any significant way since the initial MRSP was announced. The inflation of last years and Yen depreciation to USD hasn't changed that. No reason to believe they would suddenly partake in the same strategy as Sony and Microsoft, albeit I do think at a slighter difference in price, but they are not gonna forsake one of their top market to get an equivalent exchange rate in this economy.

I think the opposite. In USA and Europe Nintendo have strong competition so they need good pricing if they want to keep their position as the market leader 

But in Japan everyone just plays Nintendo or mobile games. They can rise the prices and still rule the market comfortably
