| Squilliam said: The sales gap between the Xbox 360 doesn't make sense on Pachters part considering, A. People are much more price concious due to the recession. B. The Xbox 360 has historically been stronger in this market. The only factos I can think of which could make his estimate true are, A. Xbox 360 supply issues in the big untracked stores like Walmart B. Extensive retailer discounting on overstocked PS3 hardware due to the extremely poor Holiday season. |
I've followed Pachters statements for a while, and something I've noticed (and made fun of constantly on gaf) is that he is (or at least was until late 2008) bullish on the PS3. Often his predictions have been off because he was overly optimistic for the PS3 and pessimistic on the 360, and somewhat all over the place on Wii but usually lower.
