The part you're missing is that meaning is something granted by the user, not the product. It would be meaningless if nobody used them, but since they do this is not the case.

It may be meaningless to you, but for a lot of people consoles have meaning in that they're often a hassle-free straight forward appliance. Ease of setup, use, and zero-maintenance operation is a lot of value all unto itself. You can make toast in an oven. The oven is more powerful, more capable, more flexible, it easily outperforms any toaster, and almost every home has one. Yet, people are still buying toasters.
