The strong point of a PC is versatility - you can use it for work, education (whether as a student or just looking up interesting facts), storing your stuff (such as photos/videos), watching movies, playing games, and more. Plus, they have more power and better serviceability (replacing just one broken piece of HW is well possible on a desktop PC - not so much on a laptop/console). Consoles are not as versatile and (at least in my opinion) have very limited controls due to lack of mouse and keyboard.
Unless PCs lose this versatility or we get to the point of direct brain augmentation that you'll just play games virtually in your brain, PC gaming will never die because you can have an all-in-one device.
Yes... a computer does do all that. And? So use a computer for all those things and make them more practical by separating the components that are otherwise only spent on high performance gaming. And simply because PCs can handle a high processing game, doesn’t mean that the next game in the sims series would make full use of a gaming computer: the developers still have to cater to the whole market, and most people don’t have computers that allow for the highest settings and performance. So a more versatile yet specified game platform seems like something worth exploring.
Why having two (or more) devices when I can have everything in a single PC? And I am not saying they should tune the game for the best HW available. I've replaced my previous PC after 7 years of service, during which I replaced the HDD, GPU, and PSU as they gave up. If not for a friend's friend offering me a high-end used PC for the price of mid-tier new machine, I'd still well use that old PC without much issues (and it'd run TS4 relatively well).
Not to mention that PC games have one massive advantage in the modding community (and I don't mean just Sims series for that matter).
