incredibly bulky. Not everyone these days is fine with ahving a giant electric somewhat noisy box in their living room. People buy macbook airs for a reason

There are mini PC's and laptops. The thing about PC is you can tailor it to what you want it to be. Which is a benefit of being an open platform. If you want to be a tinkerer who plays Rocket League you can. If you want your PC to be a retro system you can. If you want it to be a glorified console you can. If you want it to be a work computer that's plays the odd game you can.

for that reason, ports tend to be kind of shitty a lot of the time. Doesn't matter if you have all the hardware in the world if the game hasn't been well optimised for your system because the devs didn't have the time to allow for every possible combination of hardware

Eh not really the case anymore.

More legacy fun? People still want to whip out the atari, the SNES, the N64, the PS2, for whatever reason. Nobody wants to whip out their dad's old Texas Instruments laptop from the 90s.
house party scenario where someone whips out the gaming PC for some couch co op

Emulators make that easier on PC ironically enough.
