Honestly, I'd be more worried if Pachter "got" the Wii U ...

That's true. In Pachter's recorded history, he was wrong seven out of seven times (DS, PSP, 360, PS3, Wii, 3DS, PSV).

I'm not sure exactly what he's been wrong about with the Xbox 360 or PS3.  The only, most consistant, thing he's been wrong about has been price cuts.  Otherwise, so far, he's been pretty reasonable.

Im personally not confident that the Wii U will do as well as the Nintendo patrons want to believe.  The problem isn't the initial sales, it's of what will Nintendo do in 3 years from now.  For the next year, most games will only offer a slight improvement over the Xbox 360 and the PS3, where as for the first year that both the PS4 and next Xbox are released the games will either be on par or slightly sub par.  After two years, what us Nintento's game plan?

They're going to have to have something ready that's compelling for gamers and non-gamers alike.  I don't think the controller is going to be good enough.
