The PS3 was relaunched in Japan with a few modifications and a new low price.
This is what the launch event looked like at Yodobashi Akiba.

If you listen to it closely, you can hear crickets.

Well I guess Microsoft and Nintendo win this round...

 It's not just the price that is the problem. The main problem is that PS3 is losing a bunch of exclusive games.

Hmmm, for some reason I'm giving up on sony, it would be sad tough because i liked the first playstation, still i wonder if Japanese game developers  are gonna choose either nintendo or microsoft.

Also what happened to GTA, Final Fantasy, MGS, Devil may cry etc?

Occupation
Sony relied too much on PS2 userbase and loyalty that they let MS snatch the exclusives and turn games into multi-platform titles.  Even Mass Effect & Assasin's Creed were originally PS3 titles but either turned Xbox-only or multiplatform.  Gotta blame upper management for their arrogance but can't really blame the system.

wow! that's one amazing relaunch event *sarcasm*

Sony really needs those exclusive high profiled games to save their console from its current predicament...
