I wish i will be as wise and handsome as Pachter when i grow big.
Michael, you're my hero.
Frankly, Pachter wasn't the only one with stupidities, as Benga pointed out.
Anyway, nice to see Pachter make the same notion about unbearable costs that Nintendo did a decade ago. Better late than ever.
The only reason why Pachter is noticing the thing, is that the HD devs are losing so much money, that is partially because of Wii sucking up the sales.
Another problem with Pachters prediction is, that the industry needs a product cycle of standardised hardware. If we look at hardware and software sales, hardware sales peak first and after that, software sales peak too, which cause a decline in the industry.
Also, new stuff is invented all the time, that would make a good use in videogames that offer new experience, that is what the generational change is about.
Of course, the industry can get disrupted, but the disruptor is not going to be PC-like product cycle.
Ei Kiinasti.
Eikä Japanisti.
Vaan pannaan jalalla koreasti.
Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.
