I'll go along with the: "so what?" chorus.

Most of the mass-market games I'm simply not interested in. Therefore, if that segment of the market dies..I don't care. I won't be buying Deer Hunter XXIV, so why do I care if that company goes away?

PC gaming isn't going away. PC gaming as a major retail force might.

EDIT: Also, an important detail: you won't see publishers like Shrapnel on consoles. Because console makers control what can be published on their consoles, and therefore can veto any game..
