They will be unveiling the next-gen version of the Wonderbook.
Sony teases February 20th PlayStation event
I am inclined to think it is probably something to do with the Vita, announcing a next gen console in February seems like very strange timing, and the Vita needs something big to get it going.
That said I feel like Sony needs some positive buzz right now, I love my PS3 but I feel like it has been mostly a failure for them, especially considering how successful the PS2 and PS1 were.
Well Shuhei Yoshida just tweeted a link to the Playstation Blog which is simply titled "See the future" and has the same video.
I don't mean to make a controversial statement here, but it has to be a PS4 reveal.
Sony desperately need to beat Microsoft to the punch this time around.
I literally can't see what else this could be teasing.
PS4 Launching Sept 17 with GTA V bundle. Calling it!
Michael Pachter has stated it has to be a console announcement... and when has that guy ever been wrong?!

I will be surprised if it ends up being the next Playstation. It seems way too early for that. I may be wrong though.
It makes me wonder if they're expecting Microsoft to announce the Durango at the Xbox Showcase this year. Typically that's at the beginning of March, so they'd have to do it around the end of February to beat Microsoft to the punch.
Prediction: If Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Last Guardian still exist, they are now on Playstation 4.
"The Future": The Playstation Suppository! Stream games from your rectum to your television! Take it on the go! Stream games to any monitor! Swap out every few hours!

I'm not convinced Last Guardian ever existed.
2013 Long. Live. Play.? Then again when you say "See the Future" they must be talking about either hardware or a new service. Part of me really thinks it's going to be a new service or something since they just announced the red PS3 God of War bundle. Announcing the PS4 now will cannibalize PS3 sales. Hell this teaser is going to cannibalize sales for any enthusiast who was going to get one between now and then.
The only reason why they would announce it now--well in February--is that it's coming out before holiday, right? RIGHT!?. Spring? Now O.O? Or were the just too many people breathing down their neck so they can show their games at Destination PlayStation?
GODDAMN YOU SONY!
I'm really excited to see a new Playstation. If it's anything other than that, I am going to be annoyed.
Could be Playstation 4.
But it could just as easily be a new vita SKU (comes with 1 year of PS+ and updated to have a built in 32Gbyte eMMC storage). Maybe co-branded with a launch of a new Playstation on Android type initiative to coincide with the Sony Xperia Z launch (official blue-tooth dual shock controller that clips to phones?).
@Zekhariah: They wouldn't put this much of a push behind it if it was just that. It's either the PS4, or a Gaikai related announcement. I literally can't see it being anything else.
I could totally see it as the PS4 announcement. Get the basic stuff out of the way so you can start hyping up for E3 and then use E3 to try and pump the hype up to crazy amounts with games.
We'll see.
Im expecting this to be the Vita price cut they were stating, more Vita general information and maybe a new bundle or something. Maybe right at the end they do the "oh that playstation 3 over there? thats a playstation 4 in a ps3 shell!" or something which just says "look at this its the playstation 4, seeyou at e3!"
granted all they need to do is lock up a few more decent vita games and slash those damn memory card prices, they are the worst thing.
@chrissedoff: You and me both. If it's something about the Vita, or new firmware, or apps or whatever, I'm gonna be pissed. And I'm sure all the people going to the event will be as well.
Isn't the line of the playstation buttons the PSN logo? For whatever reason, I affiliate that with PSN, not their hardware.
I'd love a new PS4 announce, but I would bet that this is them being intentionally misleading.
@0blivion: In what bloody world is announcing first going to HURT them? They aren't going to make wild changes to the hardware any time soon because both sides are probably already pretty close to things.

I think they should skip ps4 and go straight to 5, that's a recipe for success!
Here comes the playstation 9000. Take that Xbox 720.
Also, they should totally ride the positive vibes that I'm feeling after reading the Digital Foundry breakdown of the Orbis specs. Now if it only had a HD Crash Team Racing...

"The MS Goku. It's Over 9000."
