well, in Japan they wont have that name, unless they want a console to be named "PlayStation Death".

The PS names in Japan use english numbers however... but still I think they are going to skip "4" for this reason all the same.

So... PS5 confirmed? 2020! They need to just call it playstation 4, and move on. Either way you look at it, it's still the fourth home console. I'd much rather they call it PS4, and not confuse everyone..

For you maybe, from a cultural aspect PS4=PSDeath in Japan. People in Japan will not take to it with that name.

Oh, right... Forgot about that last part. The other people in Japan who wouldn't want it in their house, and will say it brings bad luck. I just don't hold to superstitions at all, and, personally, I use "yon" when counting when it's appropriate... OR... OR... check this out.. Call it Omni in JAPAN only. すきですか？ We got multiple names with the SEGA Genesis, due to copyrights, and the same with with Megaman, and others. I like that Idea more.
EDIT:
Just thought about this too... I know it's probably 40 years away, but, what happens when we get to PS7?
