This is a rational thing to say. People give Pachter a lot of crap because they don't like what he has to say, and when they agree with what he says, they say 'Duh.'

Think about it though: if they had released a Wii HD when he said they should, in 2009-2010, then this whole problem with the Wii U would have been avoided. I own a Wii U, and while off-screen play is cool, that gamepad is driving up the cost of the console by $100 and it isn't being used very cleverly in any games. It's not like the Wiimote.

But I think there will be a large but not necessarily fate-determining number of PS4 owners who will get a Vita who wouldn't have without the remote play feature.
