Which would be a good idea because supposedly 4 is an unlucky number in Japan...i think...basically..4 is 3. So when the new console hits, it would be referred to as the Playstation 5. (?)

Yup! you are right 4 is a unlucky number in some countries in asia mostly in China, Korean and Japan.

4 has the same pronounciation as death in Japan. This is for all those who doesn't know about it.

This is, to my knowledge, derived from Chinese - the Chinese are a lot more serious about seeing 4 as an unlucky number, worse than the West is abotu the number 13. If you live in very dense Chinese neighborhoods, you'll find apartment complexs that don't have a fourth floor, so to speak.

And yeah, it's because "four" and "death" have a very similar pronunciation, with the only real difference being in inflection.
