I'm surprised they have not already. Why on earth does the XBOX and Playstation have a 16bit and 32bit compatible architecture? Cutting that could have saved money and power and they would already be ahead of the curve when ready to release it on consumers.

Nah, Itanium was a totally new architecture and instruction set, the issue wasn 32 vs 64, but that it didnt run ANY mainstream software, also turned out the whole thing was complicated and slow. What they are proposing here is keeping the 64 bit x86 architecture and ditching the 16bit and 32...
