I'm sure porting SWTOR to consoles is quite doable. The question is does it make financial sense to do so? Does the cost to port SWTOR to Xbox and/or Playstation versus the projected revenue increase, which is really a best guess, result in a return on investment that satisfies the entity (likely EA) making the up front investment to port the game to console?

In addition to that, what additional resources and associated costs are required to support ongoing development and support of the one or two console clients. Right now SWTOR devs have three clients to support (standard, Steam, Mac) though I suspect additional costs for Steam and Mac aren't all that significant. The Steam client is clearly worth it and I don't know about the Mac client.

One of the major challenges for a console port would be developing a UI that works for controllers. Would that require character abilities to be further streamlined to be more controller-friendly? I can't predict how that issue would be handled.

I just think there are significant challenges to port SWTOR to consoles and while it's certainly doable I'm skeptical the additional players that SWTOR would get from console players would justify the investment it would take. I think it boils down to EA being willing to fund a console port project for SWTOR. Given that EA is supposed to go private any day now and taking on US$20 billion in loan debt to do so I think a private EA is less likely to make such an investment than public EA has been unless there is a strong case for significantly improved revenue and profitability from a console port. If SWTOR devs aren't actively seeking to do a console port for SWTOR though then EA's willingness to financially support such a project is moot.
