No, they wouldn't piss off their consumers like that. They said the PS3 would have 10 years of life, and now they've said that PS4 will have the same. If they kill off the PS3 now, a lot of pissed off PS3 players, who doesn't want to invest in a PS4 just yet, wouldn't trust Sony to support the PS4. Then the consumers who doesn't want a PS4 just yet won't buy it later because it won't be supported then, by looking back at what they did with the previous platform (PS3).

Also not nearly the install base of the PS3 will move to the PS4, so there would be lots of lost profit.



Yep.
