Why PC Gaming is Surging

You seem to forget what happened with the Wii didn't you. It's standard controller was unorthodox and many people switch between variations of controllers. The Kinect and Move sold over 35 million units between the two. Continue, I would love to hear your point. I'll get back to you later. I have to go.

People who buy consoles don't want to sit on their couch playing  with a mouse and a quarter of a keyboard on a stable surface.

I can't see RTS games as they are on PC making their way to consoles. But I can see RTS games designed similarly to Pikmin or Battalion Wars becoming popular on consoles if controllers fitting for that kind of gameplay becomes standard on consoles and lets devs introduce mechanics not possible with standard controllers.

The Wii U gamepad is a step in the right direction in that regard. so hopefully we get a Battalion Wars 3 this gen.

For example, when I first saw the gamepad, i thought a game where you contol units on the smaller screen and battle in 3rd/1st person on the TV would be interesting. A game like that would be something different  enough from what is offered on PC.
