I don't think they can get away with it. After the initial or holiday surge, this price point isn't Nintendo's domain. Switch sold millions due to cheap pricing and novel form factor. With SteamOS devices, don't think Switch 2 is a novelty anymore.
So far no console seller games - great lineup but nothing which pushes me to get it ASAP. Very iterative, without anything standing out.
Plus the mouse mode seems super gimmicky - you'll need a hard surface to use it - which means no "real" couch coop or playing in bed. Hard surface must - which is quite ridiculous tbh.
