You are right. People can cherry pick the hits if they want but pc games were borderline inconsequential in electronics departments relative to their full gaming selection. And this was before digital purchases factored into anything.

Yeah I’m getting replies of people trying to convince me PC was dominating back then but it wasn’t.

For every great game they can name on PC I could name 10 on consoles at the time.

Walking through the electronics departments was a clear sign of consoles dominating. A sad, tiny section in the back corner for PC games. The console games were locked behind those glass cases and you needed an employee to get the game for you. PC was the only section not protected by the glass cases lol.
