What's a console except a small computer with an HDMI port for your tv and a Bluetooth adapter for your controllers?

There’s a lot less Maintenance and tinkering involved with consoles, and Im spending a hell of a lot more than $500 every 7 years to maintain a PC capable of playing the latest titles well enough. A lot less cheating in PvP too.

Plus it ends up being a lot more than a video game machine, especially for people who don't have smart TVs or a roku stick or anything. My parents use the Xbox more for Netflix than for anything else.
