There is no point to consoles anymore. It used to be that consoles were easy to use and cheaper while PCs were more expensive and complex. That is no longer the case. Computers are stupid easy now and consoles have become to expensive.

Besides being expensive, you would think owning a console would get rid of headaches. But noooo - No pass-subscriptions? No online access! No couch co-op! No optimisations! And now - no owning!
And those greedy CEO’s scratch their heads and are wondering “Why is nobody buying our stuff anymore?!” the day gaming turned corporate is the day it died. It can be still fun today, but the awesome rock’n’roll days of gaming are loooong gone.

I have seriously considered just getting a small pc to just run as an emulator with a a few thousand arcade and old school console games and call it done. It would be more fun.
