If we ever wanted to slow down block times, would that require a hard fork or could we do it with soft fork?

Because I think we will want it to be slower... Not faster. Like 3 hrs-ish. In a couple hundred years. 

 The miners wouldn't accept it. The new bitcoin would have to be 18x the price. Or you increase block subsidy to keep them happy. But probably a bad idea anyways.  

 It would not affect fees 

 And regardless of good idea/bad idea, I want to know if it would require a hard fork
