I don't think Switch 2 will fall of a cliff after the price increase. It's a successor to the best selling system in Japan after all, and despite the big boosts now (and next week), I think it will still hold on to a baseline of at least around 50k, which is decent so early in it's life, but I won't be surprised if the baseline is even higher.
Switch 1 though should fall of to a new baseline of around 10 to 15k at best per week, after the price increase, but it's sales are still better than what it's normal for a console in it's 10th year, so anything it does is just extra.
PS5 is going for a 500k to 600k at best for the year.
Curious to see if the Xbox can reach it's 2025 numbers in Japan. It isn't looking hard, but when you sell between 100 and 500 units per week it may is .. Then again it has some spikes here and there to around 1k.
