Bad because developers can get frustrated with it and decide to not take their time on the games to make them great. 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.

If thats true then why did Sony come out with the PS3, the PS2 was outselling everything?
But development on that console will get easier as the years go by, and will also get shorter. Game engines that are programed well for the PS3 will most likely be shared not to mention developing tips will be spread around as well.

There are tons of reason why the PS2 was outselling everything and most people already know why so I'm not even going to elaborate on it. Sony made the ps3 cause they make console games. I mean come on what kind of question is that. The rest of the of what you say I agree with, but i still believe consumer are the ones to make the decision on console life not a company.
