Oh I have no doubt that Sony will try and milk Playstation for all it's worth. But I should specify here, Nintendo continued to manufacture NES systems until 2003.

First of all you fanboy you are WRONG. The NES had it's production scrapped in 1996. a full 7 years EARLIER than you said. the SNES was canned in 2003. However I dont recall EVER seeing games for it after 1998. I saw PS1 games commonly up untill 2005. That gave it a actual 10 year cycle. I dont think the SNES was over 8 years.

So your 21 year lifespan on the NES dropped down to about 10.

Try not to bash sony, with AMAZINGLY wrong numbers. Thanks.

EDIT: And just to say this agian. Sony can NOT produce the PS3's fast enough. Stores are buying them as fast as they make them. Meaning Sony is shipping them the minute they are made. That means sony is NOT lying, Sony is stating the facts. Sony for... 'console' sales, only cares if it is sold to a retailer. Sony is still selling out to retailers. Ok. Sony is not lying. (sony never says it is not on store shelves) 

Didn't good 'ole Jack once dare anybody to find a PS3 on the shelves a few months ago??? While there were, even at that time, units to be found in just about any store you walked into?!?!?

Yeah - Sony never said such a thing... 

He even offered to give them $1,200 for each system they find.  Which caused the humorous penny arcade comic where they found 11 in less than an hour and demanded their $13,200 from Sony.
