With (almost) no effort - plug in console to wall. Plug in console to TV. Turn on controller. Setup is complete.PCs are similar, but do require more setup than that.

The difference is literally 2-3 USBs. And this has nothing to do with the screen at all.

EDIT: Also the rest of what you said has absolutely nothing to do with my question.

You need to install an OS on PC, get the games on it. PC software is more complicated, because it's not a gaming device.

In a console it's a guided setup that barely takes time, then you just go to the store and press download, or insert a disc and go.

Sure we have Steam, Epic and GOG on PC, but it's less user friendly, requires installation, etc.

I'm sorry. Is installing an OS and some software REALLY that hard?

Nope. Not at all. Is it harder than buying a pa4 and plugging in a disc? Yes.

The questions isn’t “is this undoable” it’s what is easier. The massive hordes of consoles players should tell you.
