It's not simple to compare PC and consoles, but I can say 'hidden fees' aren't a thing with PC. If you don't have any idea about what you're doing, you'll probably never think of some things you should be thinking of, but that's not 'hidden fees'. Obviously you need a keyboard and a mouse, they're not a hidden fee. And obviously you need some hardware to enable you to use WiFi, it doesn't just work without any equipment. It's not a hidden fee.
The way I see it, PCs cost a lot more initially, but games cost less and online is free. You can get better graphics but it's likely that you'll have to upgrade at some point. Console are relatively cheap initially, but games cost more and you have to pay for online (on most consoles). Consoles are a lot simpler but they're also a lot less flexible compared to PCs.
