A little more than a week ago, the company behind Star Wars: the Old Republic, Galactic Strongholds, and it ended up delivering no relevant new information at all.
Still, the idea of free-to-play model with its in-game purchases turned out to be the salvation of the game, but it’s still far from being considered anything close to a commercial success.
That is obviously a huge stigma on the title, but it doesn’t mean a re-launch of it for consoles could not represent a successful turn-around. After all, there were precedents set in this respect: SWTOR could follow in Final Fantasy’s footsteps and it could indeed succeed, given how on fan forums players have been clamoring for a console version of the game for quite some time now.
The bottom line: yes: SWTOR for consoles could/would make a lot of sense, and the way the situation is right now, no, we’re not likely to see the move, regardless of how attractive the idea appears.
