3. I think you'd be surprised about Pachter on this one. If you take off your blinders and look at Nintendo's history of console development - how cyclical their products are - you'd understand that they're positioned for another downswing like what we saw with the N64.

I don't have blinders on, and there is no cycle. It happened once, you don't make a pattern out of that.

What we do know however is that Nintendo's portable business has always thrived. As such, the Wii and WiiU piggybacking on that trend is a recipe for success if trends are anything to go by.
