I don't think it's that they didn't try, it's that there was nothing they could do. The Cell was more expensive tech, so there was only so much it could drop. I'm also wondering if Nvidia were being difficult with dropping the price of the RSX. I know that's part of the reason MS dropped the OG Xbox so quick, Nvidia not wanting to drop the price of the GPU in it. Could be why both went with AMD this gen. Sony had to cut costs other places and we got the first Super Slim.
But yea, it's still impressive they got to just under 90M. Shows the power of the PS brand and how great they did once the learning curve on their HW was overcome.

If NVidia was the reason then it doesn't sound good for the Switch, well, I dunno if Nintendo itself is already too fond of dropping prices so it might be even worse, it won't be good for it to be at $300 when the PS4 is $200 xP

Yea, it doesn't sound good. Though, I think maybe missing all of the system's this gen (PS4, XBO, and Wii U) may have taught them a lesson. We'll have to see. I think the $300 vs $200 is going to happen later this year, but just for the holidays. If it becomes like that for next year, that is definitely not going to be good.
