People really need to stop giving this guy attention.


Now.



Pachter is an idiot and I really wish people would stop posting articles about him...

He normally makes zero sense and hates everything Nintendo just because...

Every game he mentions doesn't sell well on Nintendo systems so that point is invalid...

Yet, when you think about it, why would anybody buy a Wii U? In the future, I'm sure it will be a great system with many awesome games exclusive to it but right now...? It has experienced the worst drought I've ever seen on a system due to the complete lack of both 1st & 3rd party games. If the launch line-up didn't convince you to buy one at launch, it won't convince you to buy one 7 months later.



"And the PS4, priced $50 more than the Wii U? I mean, why would anybody buy a Wii U, you know, unless they just have to play Nintendo games?"

Full quote, for context. Since I imagine some people didn't know it, given that the source didn't bother.



I believe in honesty, civility, generosity, practicality, and impartiality.

Pachter apostle of herd behavior



patcher is right, sure there is a reason to buy the wiiu and that's nintendo games but looking at sales, nobody cares, the wiiu is selling a pathetic 100,000 world wide a month with a main line mario game, anybody that thinks, mario kart, X and baynetta 2 are gonna save it are in fantasy land.



This dude is just full of crap! Who actually posts stuff on Pachy Dork and expects it to be credible?! Did he not just see the system sellers, MK8, Smash Bros., 3D Mario coming out real soon and how it is the cheapest next-gen console around! The real question is, who would buy an Xbone, no offense to those who will because we all have different tastes but why buy a console that watches your every move!? I saw that only 4 people can watch a netflix movie in the same room on Xbone, if the camera sees that more than 4 people are present you will be prompted to pay more cash! Who does that? But enough of Xbone we're here about that Patcher. He is stupid, he flip flops and he is a coward of an analyst. Just look at his face! Is that not the face of a coward/analyst? And if not, he just secured it. People will buy Wii U when games come out. People bought 64 because of Mario 64. People bought GC because of Smash Bros. Melee, people bought Wii for its new gameplay and Mario Galaxy/Zelda TP. How do you expect to sell hardware without good software to persuade? And Mario Kart 8, I think, will do more than persuade. 3DS was in the same position as Wii U, 2 years ago and Patcher said constantly that 3DS would fail. He bases predictions on initial outcomes and it is very sad and extremely unprofessional.



and as far as I know NES had a pretty big 3rd party support this guy is a lunatic but I still somehow like him

Why are you guys criticizing him?

Pachter actually got something right. All you have to do is duct-tape two Wii's together you have a Wii U. There, no reason to buy one.
