Lies , Veronica effects the main plot , and it's a part of the canon , they only changed the name due to some development issues that involved RE3 & CV.
anyway, im tired to claim we must forget crappy consoles and go to a pc, people still going for console, but pc is a low-cost 10 times more powerful hardware. to create a highly detailed scenario, this recquire lots of anti aliasing, an high resolution, a 30gb only for HD textures like max payne 3, dozens of filters, imagine capcom doing this, its impossible. even this, it will not look like a static background, the best thing who improve the visuals is tesselation.
Well there will always be room for consoles, for example you can't get your Halo 4 or Uncharted on the PC, but I'm just happy we do get games like RE on the PC at a later time and DMC4 and RE5 blossomed on the PC so I have high hopes for the RE6 port.
