Title of that Playstation Meeting teaser is "#Playstation2013" See The Future. I'm pretty sure this confirms a 2013 launch for PS4.

Historically, see my sig, youd be wrong.

Sony can make a exception, but their 2 gen history is very telling.

Was Kaz calling the shots on the release dates?  Nope.  In fact, the Vita's recent launch proves what will most likely happen.  It was announced at a Playstation meeting in late January '11 and launched the same year in Japan and parts of Asia later that year.  So, we're most likely looking AT THE VERY LEAST a launch later this year in Japan and parts of Asia, and a release WW in early 2014.  However, I'm expecting a release in Japan/Asia and the US, just in time for the holidays.  No matter which it ends up being, MS isn't getting much of a headstart, if one at all.  Good luck, MS. 

You are being just as optomistic as I am. But even going by handheld trends, which are also the same for both PSP and Vita, its bad news. PSP announced in 2004, launched only in Japan in 2004. Vita announced in 11 and released in only Japan in 11.

So if PS4 releases just in Japan for 2013, that gives MS NA and a head start in Europe. Or, if it follows the console trends, then MS will have a global head start. In fact I take it back, your being a ton more optomistic then I am, since I am using Sonys very own history
