http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sega_Mega_Drive
"Globally the Sega Mega Drive and games began production in Japan in 1988 and ended with the last new game being released in 2002 in Brazil."
"The Mega Drive is still manufactured in Brazil, with many games built into the console."
So that's a 14 year life cycle, or a 19+ year life cycle, depending on how you want to count it. Either way beats Playstation.

(released in 1986)
"The last commercial licensed release in Brazil was Sonic Blast, released by Tec Toy on 1998. The Master System is still being produced in Brazil." It comes with dozens of built-in games, but it can play the cartridges too -- though they are hard to find in Brazil. The system has also been released in handheld form, again with built-in games.
So that's a 12 year life cycle, or a 21+ year life cycle, depending on how you count it.
Any way you count it, SEGA IS IMMORTAL IN BRAZIL!

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
