well yeah, but that's only because the slow death of "generations" will be complete by then. We already have a large swath of casual and/or younger gamers that are still gaming on PS4 because PS5 is too expensive and all the games work fine on PS4. Bump that forward by a generation, and what would you expect to happen? I don't think it's all that wild to expect that for the majority of the PS6's lifespan, 100% of games will also come out on PS5. Hell, I'd bet even low-budget and indies continue to come out on PS4! It'll be like phones - the PS6 is there for the people that want to pay out the nose for the bleeding edge, and the PS5 and Pro will still be there for everyone else that wants a console gaming experience. And all those kids playing fortnite and minecraft? They'll still be playing that on their childhood PS4.
This is why I have no plans to buy a PS6.
