No one is ever barely right :P but he is right from his point of view most of the time; is Nintendo a good invenstment right now? No, it's not. They only have 3DS going for them, and people is only getting the Wii U to play Nintendo games.

Of course he is right from his point of view. Still, an analyst, which is his career, needs to look at the industry from an overall standpoint, not a personal one. (Which is what Pachter does quite a lot.)

If people are getting the Wii U to play Nintendo games then their money is going to the right place. I would call that a good investment.

I actually don't think he does look at it from a personal POV... How do you figure?

I'd say that a better investment would be either xbox or ps4 in that case, since those consoles will probably sell more than Wii U, and will move more software... There are only so many Nintendo fans out there after all.
