Well as a programmer, it takes as long as you want. If you want an amazing, very long, fun, well programmed game it takes about 1-4 years. If it's just a simple flash game like what you play on the internet probably just a few months. I made a pretty fun game that takes about an hour to beat the story mode, and that only took me about a month to make.
It depends an what type of videogame. Videogames on the computer take less time then videogames for Wii.Xbox,or PS3. LIke with Call of Duty Black Ops 2, the first came out November 9, 2010 and number two comes in November 13,2012. So about anywhere from 2 years to 4.
Making Video Games can be complicated and confusing, but if ur willing 2 commit, the rest is easy. Just go to Yoyogames.com and download Gamemaker. If you get the free version you can make 2-D games w/ a couple limits, but remember, many 2-D games r professional. If u get the Pro version, you can make 3-D games too! It costs more money, though. To get ya started, sprites are any image besides a backround. A background is what anything walks or moves on, but it's just an image. Rooms r what makes everything happen as well as objects.
As 4 how long, it can take years to make video games BY YOUR SELF. I dnt do it, but some ppl group together and make what can actually be a company, no matter how old you are.
If it's an arcade game, it depends. It can take a year max to make it if it's many rooms long. If it's like Pac Man, it can take maybe a couple months. If it's as simple as one room clicking things, it would take a month or even a week.
To become a game programmer or designer will take about 3 to 4 years depending on where you go. Most companies will accept a bachelors degree for the position that you desire.

Normally a videogame tester will have to have 1000-1500 hours of videogame playing experience. So all those nerds (I'm one of them ) who play videogames in their parents basements, should become video game testers.
