    for a somewhat decent price.

    Well, that’s the thing: With the additional cost of games, it’s not really more affordable. You cannot use the hardware for anything but expensive games.

    With just 5 games, that’s already $100 more than the same games on PC would have cost.
    Depending on how many games you’re going to buy, you could spend hundreds more on the PC’s hardware and it’d still be cheaper overall.

      Depends from how many games you want to buy during the life span of your console. If you are happy with one or two games, and only interested in Singleplayer then go cheaper with a Playstation, Xbox or Switch.
      If you need assistance in using a full flegded Desktop Environment you could even buy a few games more because you will never need to call an IT professional to reinstall your Console after you clicked to wrong link in the internet ;)
