^^ What you are saying is true to a extent, but there are many gamers who would not like compromises on the quality of their gaming experience and the current grade of console gaming is unacceptable to such people.
Technologically, PC is the best platform for gaming, but Game Developers want to put down the PC platform because of ROI (due to the issues you stated) and this is not something new and its been happening for quite a while now, but they cannot drop it all together because a tonne of gamers can still be found on PC. A person who has a decent computer for his work would always like to be able to do his gaming on it than having to buy a separate console and costly games and play them in only a fraction of the quality that he can potentially get on a PC that he already has. Even game developers realize that. Very few game publishers are solely reliant on console games for revenue. If they have a console only game, then chances are that they also have other games that are PC based.
Maybe what you said will happen, but by that time the distinction between PC and console would have evaporated, and there would only be PC's in what we now see as sleek and compact console boxes and you will do your work as well as game on them, but then I would rather call that console gaming dying rather than PC gaming dying.
