None of what you said had any significant impact in price for consoles vs PC.

The fact is that the initial cost or a pc of similar specs as a ps5 / xbox series x is hugely different. You pay half the cost of a PC and even with a subscription, you get 24 (or more) games a year. For the following 5 years, the moment you already spent nearly 1000 dls in PLUS f.e. you have now more than 120 games. So there is little logic in saying consoles are expensive.

If you compare AAA games, these are indeed 10 dollars higher. Which in the long run is not that much, since most lower their price in a few months. Unless you usually buy games on Day 1.

As I mentioned, cost is not one of the pros of a PC. Especially now in which a mid range gpu cost as much as a new gen console.
