I know that from an actual standpoint of generally speaking most bang for your buck, pc's have made more sense for over a decade.
But, console gaming is still a huge part of marketshare. Yes, it doesnt really make sense. But literally millions of people still haven't got the memo.
Only people I know who still use consoles basically just have them for that /one/ exclusive they can't wait to play.
The wider gaming landscape is not like us though.
Basically, there are still a ton of kids and/or casuals. We are likely inundated and affected by literally decades of following industry news and learning at least a decent amount of the technical hardware and software capabilities and principles... a huge amount of people still basically just view games with very little of that background knowledge.
