If Nintendo has stock for it, seems May will be like a mini extra December for Switch 2 in Japan due to a lot of people wanting to avoid the price hike.
Weekly sales will crater after this period of course, but in the short term it won't matter that much given that this month will be so massive in Japan that it basically equals 2-3 ordinary sales months there, and then Splatoon Raiders will likely lead to some hardware sales boost in July as well.
Also a milestone has been reached for Switch 2 in Japan, it has now overtaken N64 LTD sales:
N64: 5,54M.
Switch 2: 5,58M.
