Why buy a console when for roughly the same price you could buy a PC that does everything the console does and more? Yeah $700 is an insane price for what is effectively a toy.
Because PCs are worse for living room/controller gameplay, you have to deal with Windows or Linux, and many other factors?
I very much enjoy playing PC games with a controller on a big TV away from my desk. With an optical HDMI cable I've never had issues pushing 4k, 120hz, and HDR. Bluetooth mice and keyboards are incredibly common. And 8BitDo's "Ultimate" controller has been really great over 2.4ghz.
