I think it is huge. You can introduce new hardware at lower shorter risks. It is a faster evolution. And you don't need new hardware for new games. Just like phones, tablets, etc. In addition, current graphics satisfy most people. Incremental upgrades is the way to go from now on.
I believe the "unified NX platform" is gonna work similarly, too. And that is the true meaning of "unified".
And SONY fans, you better admit this is a good idea. SONY likely has similar plans. Maybe that's why SONY dedicated 4 gigabytes of RAM for the barebones PS4 OS, to receive bigger future updates that will readily ship with PS4s.
