Pachter is right approximately 0% of the time. Don't know why he'd be right now.

Well he got the delay of GTA4 right. He fails all of the important predictions though...

 

He gets all the important ones right, you know, the ones he's paid to make...

 Stuff he says that ends up as part of 'internet warz' tends to be a bit out there and too farfetched to be right. But then, no one would care if it wasn't like that, right?

Care to reference some of those important predictions that he got right?

I'm remembering things like "PS3 win will due to Blu-Ray", "Wii HD to come in two years.. no three...", and such.

 

 He's paid to predict revenue streams for video game companies, and I can't find a link to where it was said, but in all his career he's finished in the top 10 every year for the Washington times whatever it is more accurate predicting people, topping it 2 years. It was in some interview I can't find now. Those are the important predictions, cause they keep him in a job.

Either there's a disconnect between those predictions and the ones he gives to the media, or those are very short-term predictions which don't depend on his skills to predict what will happen in the console market...

Something has to give.
