The difference is that Valve would need to spend millions in porting them to consoles. While on PC, there's emulators, and they're free, so a company can easily emulate a console on PC at almost no expense.
But I think the problem is that developers/publishers need to get permission from console manufacturers to be able to sell their console games on PC. Capcom, for example, would need to sort out with Nintendo if they wanted to sell an emulated Phoenix Wright on PC, since the game is on NDS.
