Release in 2019, because the PS4 is getting old and its due for another version.  6 years is the typical span between releases for a Sony console.

"Lose to Switch?  How?"  The short version is they could have a similar situation to PS3 vs. Wii.  Sony is not invincible.

Why release in 2019 when the hardware they need to put in the box would cost more than it would if they released in 2020? Especially when yu consider that they are still about to have another over 17M selling year. So PS1 and 2 released after 6 years. PS3 and 4 after 7yrs. Sounds balanced to me.

The switch does 15M and is considered a success and sony's 5yr old outgoing console does 17M+ and its "losing"? And this isn't even about anyone being invincible. Your exact words were that you "you still think they (PS5) will lose to switch." And you got all that from sony messing up in 2006? If this is you being sure about something I would hate to see you when you have your doubts. 

1)  PS4 released after 7 years, because the PS3 was so ambitious.  It released at a $500/$600 price tag in NA.  PS3 finally got a version at $400 in Nov. 2007.  This is 6 years before the PS4 released at $400.  Sony really is consistent at releasing every six years, assuming it releases at a comparable price.

2)  The success of the PS4 does not help the PS5 succeed at all.  Just like the best selling console, the PS2, did not help the PS3 succeed at all.
