More to the point why would anyone listen to Pachter?

The man is an 'analyst' who has little to no real interest in gaming industry other than how much money it can make him. His opinions on gaming systems and games mean less to me than those of some random dude standing on a street corner, at least I know random dude's opinion hasn't been bought.

It got some fair support, but not until later.

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

Didn't he mention that he was going to buy a Wii U to play Bayonetta 2 when that game was announced?

Why Would Anybody Listen to Michael Pachter?

He still insists he was correct about his Wii HD prediction, when Wii U is clearly a next gen console.

----

Watch, when Mario Kart 8 releases, and Wii U sales soar, he's going to change his prediction of Wii U sales, which were 80 million, then 65 million, then 45 million, and now I have no clue. MP can't predict crap, I should take his Porsche and Wife.
