More than possible - but it wouldn't bode well for the "10 year lifetime" model of the PS3. At this rate, PS3 will last 6 years - and the Wii 10 years...

 

The PS2 had a hardware revision 4 years into it's life cycle why would the PS3 be any different ? a hardware revision would reignite interest in the PS3 , a good price point would attract any buyers on the fence or people who have been waiting for a better value PS3.


Sony can continue to support the PS3 with software , and Blu-Ray penatration will help keep the PS3 relevant ( assuming blu-ray continues to grow as it is doing) .


And it's yet to be seen wether the new Nintendo demographic will maintain their interest in the Wii for 10 years , the "brand new" ," cool" factor doesn't usualy last that long . The traditional gamer continues to buy software for their console long after the console looses this "cool" or "brand new" factor.
