Nothing would stop you from playing your PC from the couch on the TV (tv-out cards existed, or just use the monitor) and by 1999 you could play those three games on PC.

>Sonic
Old games playable via emulation, as well as PC releases.
>Mario
Super Mario 64 playable via emulator, old games via emulator. However, Dreamcast emulation was yet to come.
>Mortal Kombat
Released on PC, I believe it was around 1999 that it was added to MAME.

Still, I would choose to own a N64, PlayStation, Saturn, and Dreamcast over a PC in 1999 due to ease of use and exclusives, poor quality of emulation, and easy access to piracy via burning CDs on two of the four systems (with Dreamcast piracy right around the corner).
