I am not a typical gamer but I love console gaming more than all of the other platforms not that there are more than the pc though.
Reason 1: Hardware costs
Even if I can't always afford the newest console coming out at that moment , my old console is still able to play a lot of the new games unlike pc where the hardware constantly replaced.
2 : portable and the space
With devices like Nintendo switch , console is portable allthough some whould argee gaming laptop are portable the experience is not the same without a mechanical keyboard and gaming mouse. With console you can take it any where were there is tv and it doesn't take much of rhe space.
3 : purpose built
Console are build with one thing in mind gaming while pc are normally modified to play games.
This is just some of my thoughts please feel free to leave a comment with your thoughts!
