I did expect a bigger boost though considering how many people bought a Switch 2 before the price increase recently it does make sense that a lot or even most of the people who would've bought one this week bought one earlier instead. Also the Switch hits 500k which is notable since this is the last time it'll sell that much in a year.

You and I are in sync it seems: same thoughts posted at the same time lol. But yeah, not too surprising TBH. Doesn't make much sense to hold off on purchasing a NS2 system until July when you are told several weeks/months in advance that a price hike is inbound. Unless you're a new fan, didn't have the money at the time, were unaware of any such price hike coming, or some other reason.

You barely beat me to it lol. Another likely reason is someone not being able to get one back then due to stock getting depleted.
