Pachter Says He Isn’t A Fan Of (Cough! Bipolar) Wii U, And Thinks Third-Party Support Will Be Dire

[JEMC]

“I understand the console is going to be way more powerful than the DS. It’s entirely possible you’ll get great experiences that are console-like but take advantage of the touch screen. But I think most developers look at the GamePad as either a gimmick or very DS like, and they don’t want to incorporate the touchscreen features because the games aren’t any better for them.”

He had to say that?  Really? C'mon Pachter, your trollings used to be more subtles than that.

Anyway, given that he always go back and forth with his Nintendo predictions, what he says mean nothing to me.

But I have to agree with him that not every developer will support WiiU. And I don't think anyone is expecting that either.

But, is it necessary? I mean, if EA, Ubisoft and Activision have success with their launch games (something that I doubt) and bring all their future projects to WiiU, that alone will be a big improvement over the current situation.
