Reasonable on 13 October 2008
I suspect EA would be more interested in trying to push a min spec/development environment for HW guys that would make their live easier. They've said in the past (or so my memory informs me) they'd prefer either one console or more common console platforms / dev tools.
The issue is there is a lot of money in gaming and currently getting to that common spec would be way more difficult than for, say, a DVD player.
I don't see Nintendo wanting to go anyway but there own, although Sony might well be keen to have more open tech/tools following their admission they allowed PS3 to be to engineering led with tools/developer needs not giving enough consideration.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
