Consoles get just as many niche games, maybe even more. Look at half of the games on DS, or games like Katamari and Rez.
Second, you pay to make games on PC too, but there's more problems. either you make your own game engine and have a craptastic low budget game, or you spend some cash on a pre-made like Quake, Unreal, and Source and the rest of your budget goes into quality work. Likewise, on consoles you don't NEED to pay the wner for a dev-kit. Again, look at Katamari, which was made for PC first then re-written for PS2 when people expressed interest in buying it.
Personally I love PC, but I've found that consoles are just better because they use unified hardware setups. No upgrades and no fear that someone has a joystick when you don't, a better mouse than yours, or hacking software. PC is on the decline, although some games are still going to be PC only.
