Development isn't going to get more expensive just because of better Graphics. It will even become cheaper. It's the main reason the PS4 is using x86 and a shitload of RAM. Optimization will be a lot easier, which means less development time, less programmers and less costs. Especially Mid-Range games can be produced very cheap with some licensed Engine.
Consoles will be around a whole lot longer. But just like the PC, they are always doomed at some point. Just because something like the iPhone comes around, it doesn't mean everything else automatically goes to waste. The market can very well handle multiple plattforms. Even if the market shrinks, which I highly doubt, as long as it's profitable for the Manufacturers, there will always be new consoles.
