Sony decides the lifespan, not the consumers. It doesn't matter what consumers do, Sony will have their consoles out on the market longer than expected. The system could sell great ( PS2), or it could sell terribly (PS3). This should bolster my point that consumers do not sway Sony in the least. Sony milks something until it's dead.

 

So if consumers stop buying the ps3 tommororo what than? Just hypothetical

Maybe he's saying that Sony will produce PS3's just to have it gaining dust at the production line. Or something similar...
