i can see them going up to PS9, then naming the PS10 the PSX. but what after that i wonder. that would be in around 35-40 years. but hey, my mind wonders sometimes lol.

Oh, jeez, I just hope they never switch over to roman numerals. I hate roman numerals.

I'd prefer they establish a new brand name to use with Playstation. Like the Playstation Manta or the Playstation Kappa. Then they could restart the order with the PSK2, etc., and so on.

They could also go Japanese all over it and start using English symbols, words, and letters badly. The Playstation.X/~Kappa Ultra has a nice ring to it.

I think there will be a Playstation 5 ... but a Playstation 6 ... I doubt it.

By that time I think most people will get their games delivered to their TV/tablet via a streaming/network service.

Playstation Now is kind of the beginning, in 10-15 years that will be the norm.

Just like no one goes to Blockbuster Video anymore to get their movies, whereas just 10 years ago they were one of the biggest brands on the planet.

The Same. Also WiiU would sell the same if it was called Wii4.
