How would that even work?

More power has always meant more cost.

I am confused.

With time and more efficient hardware more power gets cheaper

That's moore's law for hardware.

So far it hasn't applied for software though. Costs have always gone up with every console generation due to the increasing amounts of sophisticated code that needs to be written, increased quantity and complexity of art assets, etc.
