Consoles are easier than PCs to use daily and to maintain. You are also forgetting many people have built up a library of ps4/ps5 games.  |
Maintain? What kind of maintenance do you require on a PC that you don't require on a console?
Because consoles need firmware updates, consoles need dust cleaned out, consoles need software patched and more.
They are a PC, just in a custom case with a semi-custom OS... And as such, require all the same "maintenance" as a PC.
Might have been true in the Nintendo 64 era where consoles were easier... But that simply just isn't the case anymore.
Many of my PC's seem to last longer than a console generation as well with minimal work to them... Lost count of how many years I have had this Windows install, even with a few changes of hardware throw in for good measure. |
I've tried to convince a friend of mine, who pretty much falls into "money is no object" category when it comes to home entertainment, to switch to PC gaming for quite a while now - he just flat out refuses to move away from PS due to "convenience and physical media". I guess those sort of folks are Sony's potential customers for PS5 Pro (though he has no interest in it, so far).
