That's what they did with the PS2. The PS2 came out in 2000 and the PS3 was launched in 2006. It's 2012 now and the PS2 is still being sold.
Microsoft plans to do the same thing for the XBox 360. Even though the next XBox will probably launch in 2013, the XBox 360 will stay on the market until 2005 (10 years later).
The PS3 may last another 5 years, but If Sony releases a PS4 to soon, it make not get as much 3rd party support, because they will still be making PS3 games that they know will sell 500K- 1 million units. I don't think a lot of gamers would jump on the PS4 is it launched this year.
