Pachter's credibility as an analyst is virtually non-existant. All of his predicitions fail. However I do believe he has connections in many studio's publishers. I mean GTTV and G4 wouldn't take him so seriously if he didn't have any connections. Based on the fact that Microsoft is holding a seperate conferance just for Natal leads me to believe their is a crap load of software and the fact that Natal was announced a year ago and the Beta dev kits must have gone out even before E3 2009, leads me to believe Pachter is probubly telling the truth.
I bet you anything their is alot of software already in the works for Natal and with over a year to work on games developers likely are being put on the backburner this fall. Remember in Early 2008 when the first job postings were posted by Microsoft on Gamasutra calling for developers to work on Microsoft's next console. If that console was really Natal that means Microsoft has been working on Natal games for over two years.
I have no doubt that their is alot of software coming from Natal and I also doubt that software isn't being bumped to 2011. Pachter's credability doesn't come into the equation as most of this info is common sense.
