I don't understand why people think it's impossible for a company to drop out of the race.

Yeah, Sony was "King" for two generations. Hurray. Too bad their third generation console demolished the profits from the last two, and put them in a crippling debt.

Why does all this have to even be repeated? Sony is in HUGE financial troubles, slashing workforces, shutting down factories, restructuring of management... it's all been said before.

BUT NOPE NOPE THER WIL B A PS4 FER SHURE GUISE

Where is the money to go on with this venture? Where is the business sense in all this? Nintendo can never die thanks to it's core fanbase, Microsoft has a near infinite supply of cash, Sony has... a collapsing company and a sinking ship of a console?

Nintendo is essentially immortal, and Microsoft is willing to fight tooth and nail to be the "other" competitor in the market - and certainly has more fight power than Sony could ever dream of.

I'm not saying there is zero chance of a PS4. What I am saying though, is if I had to make a bet, I'd say there isn't going to another console from Sony. Let alone one that will topple the competition.
