Very, VERY few people are interested in buying a gaming PC. 

You can't know that. 

OT: Of course. While I agree, to an extent, that a chunk of the reasons to pick up the system are gone, take a close look at it. If they were offering their 1st party stuff everywhere on PC (not just locked to Win10/WinStore), it would certainly make it a harder sell. 

As things currently stand, though, there are still plenty of reasons to pick it up.

No, but I can assume that most people who buy PCs does it for productivity, movies and some basic gaming, and are not interested in upgrading the hardware every couple of years.

And do you really think that people choose consoles because of exclusive games and therefore accept lower quality performance of all the third party games, or that something else is behind the choice? There is no question that some gamers (like those hanging around these sites) focus on exclusive titles, but we are in the minority. Just look at sales of the most succesful exclusives last gen on 360, selling about 10-15 million on a 80 million userbase. That is a pretty big signal as to how important exclusives really are.
