You know I'm kind of tired of the Anti-Patcher crap... he's far more accurate than anyone here is. Not only that, but he also has inside information and has a massive network of people who channel him information. I think that when he says something you should pay attention... just because it doesn't come true doesn't mean that it wasn't a highly likely scenario. He knows more than you do and that's not even something you can begin to question.

Please post a list of Pachter predictions which have come true. I'm willing to bet that the vast majority of them will be trivial stuff.

 

 

Actually Pachter's "guts" predict quite accurately :

That was in 2007 andthey chose just 7 predictions.  Of which one they claimed was true is now false and 2 were flip flops of the same prediction.  Of the 6 actual predictions, 3 were true.   

But it's not so much how accurate his predictions are (especially when some of those were blatantly obvious) but how off he is when he's off.   An HD Wii in 2010 despite Iwata being adamant that the Wii has no need for HD?  His 4 million global online players comment?  Nobody wants to play WoW online?  Claiming this is he last generation of home consoles?  $100 PS3 price cut last April?  GTAIV to sell best on PS3?  2008 would be a great year for Midway?  Ken Kutaragi will replace howard Stringer as president and CEO of Sony.

 

When he's right, it's usually with very obvious information.  When he's wrong, it's usually an incredible doozy.
