It used to be the case that gaming on consoles was very easy while it's difficult to play on PC but these days it's very easy to play on your phone or on your PC. Consoles dont really offer that much these days with a possible exception for nintendo switch.

You always have the option of building a PC if you want max performance, sure you may miss out on a few exclusives but in return you can play a huge library and also have fun with emulators. When you have a PC you can also use it for productivity.
xbox one x was good for it's price at launch, at least if you want 4K gaming at bad framerate (less than 100 fps) so i suppose it suits some people but if you look at sales number it's not doing too well.
Even nintendo switch is kinda unpractical, it's easier just to have one device (your phone).
xbox one + PS4 + WII U: 163 million
xbox 360 + ps3 + wii: 274 million
the switch is doing well but's it's the only successful portable console now.
Breath on the wild on the switch runs at just 30fps which is unplayable.
Most causal players do not buy a system specifically for gaming.
A PC will last longer than a console even if you dont upgrade it, you can just lower the graphical settings, especially if you are willing to accept console settings and failing to hit 30fps.
I am pretty sure wii have more games running at 60fps stable than ps4.
