I say high side cause it's the highest they could've gone without things starting to get unreasonable. A full 200 increase over the Switch would've been asking a lot.

That said yes. However it's okay and normal for the prices to go up when the time move on. With the inflation last couple of years, 449$ is okayish. it's almost the same thing as the Switch was in 2017 - 299$ is 392$ now, so just 50$ above is still in the reasonable range.

It's still in the reasonable range yeah. Not that long ago a lot of people were expecting 349 which was always silly considering recent inflation and the price of the Switch 1 OLED model. A 499 Switch 2 OLED model could be a bit of a tough sell so that probably won't make up half of Switch 2 sales late in its life.
