The Playstation wasn't dropped when the PS2 came out, it was manufactured well into the 2000's. If Sony keeps their promise the PS3 will be supported until 2016.
I have no idea when the next Xbox will be released, but I have to think the PS3 and Wii successors will come out in 2012 or 2013 at the latest.
