If Pachter really thinks people don't switch consoles he's crazy. 90% of console owners are not hardcore gamers posting on forums and waging console wars. I'm 24 years old now and most of my friends who used to be "Xbox only" or "Playstation only" have grown up and don't care about the branding of their gaming machine. They just want the best machine and the PS4 seems to be the better choice because it's more powerful and has great first party support (not saying this is a fact but Sony was able to position its console as the "superior choice" in the eyes of the general public).
What I'm trying to say is: The people I talk to don't care about a console brand, they just want to play games and pick the most "convenient" console. And I think by far the largest chunk of the market thinks exactly like that. "Loyal hardcore gamers" are only a small minority. Anyone else will switch consoles in a second and don't think twice about it.
