Yep for sure, but many expected it to stop when the Switch 2 came out. But we're still seeing it on the difference between Switch and Switch 2 games here is relatively small, it's still more, but Switch games were underpriced here (compared to other markets).

And keep in mind, Australian Switch games are/were always cheaper compared to other markets.
The dollars in the toilet now, but we're still ahead of the yanks.

I do love how for most the part the market here in Australia has decided to basically reject the higher RRP of Switch 2 games.
Every store is selling most first party stuff 15-25%~ off which is only a few more dollars than the RRP of Switch games. Tremendous.
