They have to make a good game first.
If they port it in this condition it won't succeed. It would be more effective and cost efficient if they make sure they get the formula right first before porting it to the PS4, or else the first impression they make will be horrible and it will turn out to be a waste of money.

Dying console?
I think you need to broaden your definition. By your definition the Playstation 2 would be a dead console, however Gamestop just announced recently they were taking them as trade ins again because the demand was so high.
Let me repeat that. The Playstation 2, as in two generations ago, is still in demand.
The PS3 has a long life ahead of it yet, and game system life span isn't as cut and dried as you would think.

The Playstation 2, as in two generations ago, is still in demand.The PS3 has a long life ahead of it yet, and game system life span isn't as cut and dried as you would think. The ONLY reason the PS2 is back in demand, is because you can install every game ever made for FREE on it. I have almost 250 games on mine, 1000gb hard drive. Its a great starter system for the kiddies.
And the PS3 can play games from the PSN store that you have to use the stupid PS Now in order to play on the PS4 (assuming the game is even available). Not to mention the entire PS3 library.
Those two reasons alone are reason enough for many to still own PS3s and use them for years to come.
So long as revenue for any game exceeds its operating costs, there will always be incentive for game developers to continue supporting that product.
Game makers aren't in the habit of turning down sources of revenue.
