In addition to being more cost efficient, square footage is at a premium. I bought a PC when things were going well for me, but then my living situation changed and it sat in the closet for a couple years. The old Playstation doesn’t take up any additional space because it can sit behind the TV that’s always being used anyways. 

Now that I’ve finally organized my space enough to fit a computer desk I’ve gotta deal with either using Windows or taking up Linux as a full-time hobby and learning how to make an Nvidia card work with it. It’d literally be easier to just sell it and buy a ps5 if I only cared about gaming.
