I think Nintendo wanted to reach the 100M benchmark, but didn't really care about beating the PS1.
Sony had to reduce the official MSRP of the PS1 to $49 just to pass over the 100M mark.
Around 13M (~12.86M) PS1 were sold at a MSRP of $49, (FY starts on April 1st, price was cut on May 14th)
with the total amount PS1 shipped being 102.54M.
Also to note the Wii stayed above the $199 price point quite a bit longer than the PS2.
