All successful consoles should be supported pretty well for about two years after release of their successor. That doesn't mean there can be zero new gen exclusives. But, I don't think companies should immediately tell the last gen owners to fuck off the day the new console launches. There are people buy XBone and PS4 still today. They can't be abandoned in 6 months.

Of course, money will dictate this stuff. And, it seems, according to history, that the money says most stuff should be cross gen for a year, then support trails off over years 2 and 3. And, that's fine with me.

They aren't abandoned they have like 4000 games to chose and buy while new console owners have like 10.

Plus I find funny this obligation to please people that waited 5 years to get a console for bargain price instead of the ones that are eager to buy the new console for premium price. These are the ones that need new experiences.
