And therefore you see horrible ports and even horrible exclusives as well. Good because there will always be one developer that seems to get more out of the console then everyone else. Then other developers will see this and will try and make one better. And that reason alone can help make a console last the 10 years they want. |
This does not make a console last 10 years. Consumers make that decision and also harder to program for means less and less game made with longer development time to work on programing causing higher risk which in turn less game for people to buy which in turn less interest in console and ultimately less console sales making it harder to for a console to live 10 years.
