I'd like a PCIe SSD anyway, so I'm going to get one.

Being months late for a game - I don't see the problem. It's not like I'll die if I wait a few months for a PC version.
And indeed, there are only games for consoles, and there are only games for PC. However, many games get converted so you can play them on PC later, and that rarely happens for a console.

No, upgrading your PC is not as frequent an occurrence as I exaggerated it to be, but how often does someone buy a new console? You buy a console and you're golden. Any game released for it is going to work just fine without any further investment (unless it's N64 or lolmotioncontrol).
What rarely happens for a console? Getting a PC game ported to it? I agree; most PC-only games these days are mediocre and not worth porting to consoles.
The fact is, most games today are deigned for console and possibly ported to the PC. Anyone gaming exclusively on the PC is going to miss out on many great games, whereas console gamers will only miss out on a few. Hell, console gamers are most likely even going to get Diablo 3.
