I am sure that the stores have a sound financial reason for reducing the floor space allocated to PC games.

That is what concerns me.
I believe it's because 98% of PC gamers have and use internet access thus finding it easier to make purchases online.
Not all of the console gamers have internet access and most console gamers are from the younger generations which lack knowledge/ability to purchase online.

It's my theory PCGamers are buying online in bulk of 4+ games at once and/or combination with other items to save money via combo discounts. Unfortunately that's not the entire reason... it seems more and more of the younger crowd is leaning toward console games. It's easier for companies to hook them on console games because there's almost no software or hardware to install and manage.

I actually recommend parents to not buy console systems because a PC system serves multiple purposes. And a youngster who is able to build, configure, secure and manage his own PC systems will have a stronger technical education than a youngster who is able to setup and manage his console system.
