The main advantage PC has is that most games are either DRM-free or easily cracked. The exception are Denuvo titles, but usually after half a year they are cracked too. So if the goal is to have longevity of purchase and physical backups, PC is the easiest platform to do it. Of course it doesn't solve resale or collector objections to moving to digital, or the issue people in developing countries/regions might have with internet speeds, but it solves the longevity problem much better than physical with DRM ever did as you can backup updated versions and have multiple backups, making it redundant to the media breaking or failing. From an archivist perspective, PC is the best platform.
