They could release a newer version every 12-18 months if they wanted.  It would have to use the same basic architecture for programming and just like PC's it could be scaled performance wise.  So, if you had a year one XB1, it might run a game at 900p and 40 fps.  A year 2 XB1 would run at 1080p and 60fps.  Developers could easily write the games that way, it could auto recognize which system and run that version.  Not much different than what can be done on PC, except they only have to make the game compatible with 2 video cards at that point.  Too many of the Fanboys would freak out that they have year 1 and complain.

Just an Idea...

That's a bad idea for many reasons, which the poster below me will explain.

Huh?
